  Lecture Focus\n\nAbstract: The operationalization of ethical principles\,
  current and emerging legislation\, and the understanding and mitigation o
 f potential consequences to individuals and society are key challenges in 
 responsible\, trustworthy\, and participatory AI development. Responsible 
 innovation and ethical tech are essential to build public trust and meet l
 egal obligations. Participatory AI is an approach to AI development that a
 ctively involves various stakeholders\, including end-users\, communities\
 , and other relevant parties\, in the design\, development\, and deploymen
 t processes of AI systems. This method emphasizes collaboration\, transpar
 ency\, and inclusivity to ensure that AI technologies are aligned with the
  values\, needs\, and expectations of the people who will be affected by t
 hem. Examples of research projects that bridge the gap between businesses\
 , academia\, and people will be presented\, demonstrating how the use of e
 thical toolkits can help build public confidence to question the use of AI
  in their everyday lives\, enhance academic research and provide meaningfu
 l public engagement to business. By fostering a collaborative approach\, t
 he speaker will illustrate how AI systems can be created to be not only in
 novative but also aligned with societal values and ethical standards.\n\nS
