The University of California AI Council was established to further the recommendations set forth by the University of California Presidential Working Group on Artificial Intelligence in its final report published in October 2021. On October 6, 2021, President Michael V. Drake adopted the Working Group’s Responsible AI Principles and related recommendations to guide UC’s development and use of AI in its operations.
The UC AI Council supports the development of training and outreach programs that explain AI and the risks posed, develop risk and impact assessment strategies, offer guidance on documentation of AI-enabled technologies in a public database, and provide additional strategies for operationalizing the “UC Responsible AI Principles” as the Council sees fit.
