GENERAL: GENerative, Explainable and Reasonable Artificial Learning

The GENERAL (GENerative, Explainable and Reasonable Artificial Learning) workshop, held at CHITALY 2023, delves into the advancements in General and Generative Artificial Intelligence (GGAI), with a focus on breakthroughs in natural language processing (NLP) and computer vision (CV). The workshop highlights the capabilities of Large Language Models (LLMs) and Latent Diffusion Models (LDMs) in generating human-like content across text and images. It emphasizes the importance of AI explainability, aiming to understand, explain, and control the complexities of these AI systems in terms of fairness, accountability, and transparency. The workshop encourages interdisciplinary collaboration across fields like HCI, psychology, social studies, and the arts to better understand AI’s societal and cultural impacts. Topics of interest include user perceptions of generative AIs, machine psychology, AI assistants, ethical issues in Generative AI, and safety and control mechanisms for large language models.
