In this panel, UQ researchers discuss various avenues of research and lessons in co-designing, building, and evaluating HCAI. These projects include the Trauma Informed AI Toolkit and Mortar, a tool to support legal understanding and advocacy.

Explore 'science fiction science' with Prof. Iyad Rahwan (Max Planck) using imagined futures to study and guide the societal impacts of Artificial Intelligence.

On the 26th and 27th June, the UQ AI Research Network hosted the 2025 UQ AI PhD Showcase over two days at the St Lucia Campus. The event brought together over 40 PhD students from diverse disciplines, leading academics, industry experts, and members of the UQ community for two days of vibrant discussion, cutting-edge research presentations, and collaborative networking.

Join us for a morning exploring the advancements and increasing adoption of AI in healthcare with guest speakers Professor Anandhi Bharadwaj from Emory University, and Professor Xitong Guo from the Harbin Institute of Technology.

Can you imagine a robot stitching up your wound? Or an algorithm scanning your moles for signs of skin cancer? What about an AI-prescribed treatment plan tailored specifically to your genetics?

The 2023 Summer of AI (SAI) will bring together UQ staff and students with skills or interests in AI, together with industry, to foster collaboration and community, and facilitate efficient dissemination of AI knowledge to counter its rapid growth.

UQ is pleased to host the 36th Australasian Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, running from 28 November - 01 December 2023.

In this BrisScience event, Associate Professor Marcus Gallagher explores how AI got to this point, and some of the major advances and challenges in the field.

Join Associate Professor Ujwal Gadiraju from TU Delft for this talk discussing the intriguing and pertinent role of human input in propelling better AI technology in the quickly evolving age of generative models.

The UQ AI Collaboratory is an initiative to boost funding and support for AI activities and research at UQ, including seminars, training activities, internships and employment opportunities.
Applications for the UQ Artificial Intelligence Student Internship Program, running in Semester 1, 2023 are now open.

Summer of AI (SAI) is a series of technical events including seminars, workshops, and information sessions, created to foster a community around AI, disseminate AI knowledge efficiently to counter its rapid growth, support summer scholars and HDR students undertaking AI-related research, connect AI-skilled students with potential supervisors provide development of AI skills for UQ staff and students, kick-start AI collaborations across UQ, and engage with industry in the AI space.

Applications are now open for the UQ AI Collaboratory Summer Semester Internship Program.

What is your question about AI chatbots and social bots? We'll have the answer in this Ask Me Anything session with A/Prof Guido Zuccon and Dr Marten Risius.

Join us as we discuss the first comprehensive taxonomy of NFQ categories and the expected structure of answers.

This seminar will show that a differential analysis of language model snapshots before and after an update can reveal a surprising amount of detailed information about changes in the training data. To demonstrate the leakage due to updates of natural language models, we develop two metrics — differential score and differential rank.

This talk will discuss approaches to integrating behind-the-meter distributed energy resources (DER) into low-voltage distribution networks. We approach the problem from two angles: (i) uncoordinated energy management of individual prosumers and (ii) coordinated approaches that orchestrate the response of several prosumers in virtual power plants.

Information warfare instruments have recently been used to weaponise misinformation to foster propaganda and to reach political goals by influencing populations at scale. In this seminar we will discuss how human-in-the-loop AI technology can support expert fact-checking efforts that have been increasing substantially due to the rise in the spread of misinformation.

Artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML) in particular, are set to revolutionise everyday healthcare and improve patient outcomes. This presentation will illustrate the steps required to take AI/ML applications from in-silico prototypes to effective point-of-care instruments embedded within electronic medical records and imaging software.

Ever wondered how artificial intelligence affects our life in this digital age? Get all your questions answered in this unique Ask Me Anything session opportunity with globally recognized innovator and business leader Dr Vishal Sikka.

Precision prevention of advanced melanoma is fast becoming a realistic prospect, with personalized, holistic risk stratification allowing patients to be directed to an appropriate level of surveillance, ranging from skin self-examinations to regular total body photography with sequential digital dermoscopic imaging.

Prof. Miller will present an overview of the intersection of explainable AI and will present some key examples of how to integrate social science knowledge into these methods for explainability in sequential decision making problems.

Have you ever wondered how deep learning impacts on our daily activities – including things like web searches, image searching, virtual assistants and even deep-fakes? If you are interested in this topic, please join us at this online Ask Me Anything session.

Prof John Fraser will explore how we can thrive in the midst of COVID 19 and provide an overview of the global collaboration of CCRG and the future of ICU.

Plant breeders are expected to have a working knowledge of the Breeder’s Equation. It is also expected that the Breeder’s Equation will be used as a framework to help optimise the design of their breeding program. This was relatively straightforward when breeding was based predominantly on selection for trait phenotypes. Today, breeders either use, or aspire to use, genomic information in many ways to improve the effectiveness of their breeding programs.

How is misinformation and fake news generated? We'll have the answer at this Ask me anything session.
