I had fun with this Computers and Thought Award interview at IJCAI 2024, discussing the role of theory and provable guarantees in AI/ML esp. for fairness/safety, the need for concreteness in AI regulation, and the health of AI conferences. Thanks @aihuborg and @kkpatelnmh!.
Some great insights in this interview - AIhub ambassador @kkpatelnmh met @nsrg_shah (winner of the 2024 @IJCAIconf Computers and Thought Award) to chat about his work understanding fairness in AI and machine learning.

Congratulations to all the fellows, especially my former student Mark Bailey, who is an absolute powerhouse. It was a fantastic experience collaborating with him on our AAAI paper, and I’m excited to see all that he’ll accomplish in his new AI safety research journey at Berkeley.
We’re proud to announce our first cohort of PhD fellows for 2025. We’re delighted to welcome these exceptional early career researchers to our community, and we look forward to supporting their contributions to cooperative AI. Fellows' profiles via the link in next post.

Jannik's dissertation makes fundamental contributions to the theory of proportional representation, not only in voting theory, but also in machine learning. His work combines theoretical advances with practicable methods. #algorithmic_fairness #proportional_representation.
