Five Year Investment in Responsible AI Research - KPMG and AI4FinTech
The University of Amsterdam (UvA) has secured a five-year investment to drive research at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and accountancy. This structural funding will enable the UvA to delve deeper into both AI applications in auditing and the critical task of auditing AI systems themselves.
Responsible AI at the Forefront
This partnership aligns seamlessly with us the (‘AmsterdamAI, Technology for People’) initiative, which the UvA is an integral part of. The initiative focuses on the development and application of responsible AI, ensuring that AI technologies are reliable, ethical, and impactful.
