A Call for Universities to Develop Requirements for Community Engagement in AI Research
Workshop paper
Emily Black, Joshua Williams, Michael Madaio, Priya Donti
Abstract
We call for universities to develop and implement requirements for community engagement in AI research. We propose that universities create these requirements so that: (1) university-based AI researchers will be incentivized to incorporate meaningful community engagement throughout the research lifecycle, (2) the resulting research is more effective at serving the needs and interests of impacted communities, not simply the stakeholders with greater influence, and (3) the AI field values the process and challenge of community engagement as an important contribution in its own right.
