The mission of the Montreal AI Ethics Institute (MAIEI) is to define humanity’s place in a world increasingly characterized by and driven by algorithms. In order to achieve our mission, we aim to build public competence in AI Ethics through tangible and applied technical and policy research—equipping and empowering anyone, anywhere to engage in conversations regarding the development and deployment of AI systems.
To build public competence in AI Ethics and publish innovative, applicable policy research, we believe in the power of collaboration, transparency, and openness. Therefore, we’ve implemented an open access policy that will allow for sharing and adaptation of our work (e.g. translations into other languages) with the aim of reaching a wider audience and having a greater impact. Under this policy, we will not only share our work under an open license on our website and through third-party platforms (e.g. arXiv) but we will also encourage our collaborators, stakeholders, and community to do so as well.
