New grant! Delighted to be able to work more closely with our colleagues at the Urban Systems Lab (New School, NYC) and and especially @timonmcphearson in a project that applies AI-models to analyze social vulnerabilities and climate risks in cities.

How often do people get incorrect legal, financial or medical advise from chatbots? Defamatory content? Toxic or biased outputs? How often do bad actors use gen AI to create disinfo or CSAM?
