SUMMARY:ABCP-CBAIA Workshop on AI Safety
DESCRIPTION:Introduction\nBased on a successful webinar jointly organised by Institute of Cyber Security for Society (iCSS) at the University of Kent\, Specialty Committee on AI and Cyber Security of ABCP (Association of British Chinese Professors)\, and CBAIA (China-Britain Artificial Intelligence Association) on 28 February 2025\, ABCP and CBAIA are working together to organise a joint Workshop on AI Safety on 3rd May Saturday at IOE\, UCL. \nAs implied by its name\, the theme of the workshop will be around how to safeguard AI especially frontier AI models and systems such as large language models (LLMs)\, large vision models (LVMs) and other large AI models and systems. \nThe event will be held as an in-person event to allow more effective exchanges and discussions between participants\, in the form of some light talks and roundtable discussions towards future R&I collaboration and joint grant applications. Remote participation may be allowed for some sessions. \nAt the event\, we will discuss relevant ongoing and forthcoming funding calls and participants’ potential responses to such calls. These will include calls from the EU’s Horizon Europe programme\, UKRI\, DSIT AISI (AI Security Institute)\, ARIA’s Safeguarded AI programme\, and other funders including large technology companies (e.g.\, Google Academic Research Awards and Amazon Science AI for Information Security). \nTo simplify the organisation of the event\, we will order a delivered lunch for all participants. After the event\, we recommend participants to split into smaller groups to have dinner separately (costs covered by themselves)\, which can help facilitate more follow-up discussions. \nThe event is mainly for ABCP and CBAIA Members\, but we also welcome non-members to attend if they are interested in developing and/or supporting R&I activities related to AI safety. \nEoI Registration\nIf you are interested in attending the workshop\, please register your expression of interest (EoI) using the following form by 25th April Friday: \nhttps://forms.gle/rEuu9W1TKziaxfhF8 \nTentative Agenda (* = remote participation may be considered)\n\n10:00-11:00: Arrival and registration\n11:00-11:10 (*): Welcome and introduction\n11:10-12:10 (*): Light talks by some participants\n12:10-13:00: Lunch and networking\n13:00-14:00 (*): Brief introduction of each other’s work and R&I interests\n14:00-14:30 (*): Introduction to some ongoing and future funding opportunities\n14:30-16:00: Break-out group discussions on potential R&I collaboration and joint grant applications\n16:00-17:00 (*): Feedback from group discussions and concluding remarks\nAfter 17:00: Further networking and self-organised dinners of separate sub-groups\n\nOrganising Committee\n\nProfessor Shujun Li (李树钧教授)\, Professor of Cyber Security & Director\, Institute of Cyber Security for Society (iCSS)\, University of Kent; VP for IT & Governance and Co-Chair of Specialty Committee on AI and Cyber Security\, ABCP\nDr Jindong Gu (顾金东博士)\, Senior Research Scientist\, Google; Senior Research Fellow\, University of Oxford\nDr Kezhi (Ken) Li (李克之博士)\, Associate Professor in AI in Healthcare\, Institute of Health Informatics\, University College London; Executive/Research Fellow\, CBAIA\nDr Zhenhai Li (李振海博士)\, Executive/Research Fellow\, CBAIA\nDr Tengfei Yin (尹腾飞博士)\, Software Development Engineer\, Amazon; Executive/Research Fellow\, CBAIA

SUMMARY:Responsible Generative AI: What to Generate and What Not
DESCRIPTION:Slides and Video Recording\n\nSlides: https://cyber.kent.ac.uk/seminars/20250228_Jindong_Gu.pdf\nVideo recording:\n\nhttps://cyber.kent.ac.uk/seminars/20250228_Jindong_Gu.mp4\nIntroduction\nThis hybrid webinar is jointly organised by the Institute of Cyber Security for Society (iCSS) at the University of Kent\, Specialty Committee on AI and Cyber Security of ABCP (Association of British Chinese Professors)\, and CBAIA (China-Britain Artificial Intelligence Association). The in-person part of the event will take place at JLT\, Jennison Building\, University of Kent\, Canterbury\, Kent\, CT2 7NZ\, UK. \nIt will lay the foundation of a follow-up joint ABCP-CBAIA whole-day Workshop on AI Safety at UCL in London on Saturday 3 May 2025. More details about the workshop will be released after the talk. \nSpeaker\nDr Jindong Gu\, Senior Research Scientist\, Google & Senior Research Fellow\, University of Oxford\, UK \nAbstract\nIn recent years\, generative AI (GenAI)\, like large language models and text-to-image models\, has received significant attention across various domains. Ensuring responsible generation is critical for real-world deployment. In this talk\, I will present five key and practical considerations for responsible GenAI: generating truthful content\, avoiding toxicity\, refusing harmful instructions\, preventing training data leakage\, and ensuring content identifiability. By providing a unified perspective on textual and visual generative models\, this talk offers insights into best practices\, emerging research directions\, and challenges in building safe and ethical GenAI systems. \nThis talk is based on the following preprint authored by the speaker: \nJindong Gu (2024) A Survey on Responsible Generative AI: What to Generate and What Not. arXiv:2404.05783v2 [cs.CY]\, 77 pages. https://doi.org/10.48550/arXiv.2404.05783 \nBio\nDr Jindong Gu is a Senior Research Scientist at Google\, specialising in advancing the reliability and safety of AI technologies. He is also affiliated with the University of Oxford as a Senior Research Fellow in Torr Vision Group. Prior to that\, He received his PhD degree from University of Munich in Tresp Lab. His research goal is to build responsible AI. Specifically\, he is interested in the interpretability\, robustness\, privacy\, and safety of AI models. In this area\, He has regularly published papers\, served as Reviewer and Area Chair\, and organised workshops at leading conferences\, including NeurIPS\, ICLR\, and CVPR.

SUMMARY:Workshop on Health Data Management
DESCRIPTION:Introduction\nBased on the discussion at the last ABCP “每月一谈” (“Monthly Topical Discussion”) on 31st May\, ABCP’s Specialty Committees on Life Science and Health\, AI and Cyber Security and EDI Working Group are planning to organise a joint workshop on Health Data Management to allow ABCP members and non-members to discuss potential R&I collaboration on this topic. \nThe theme of the workshop will be around how health-related data can be collected\, accessed\, used and shared for different real-world applications and R&I activities\, covering AI as a key enabling technology and data security and privacy as a key requirement and research topic. \nThe event will be held as an in-person event to allow more effective exchanges and discussions between participants\, in the form of roundtable discussions towards future R&I collaboration and joint grant applications. Remote participation will be allowed for some sessions. \nAt the event\, we will discuss relevant funding calls and participants’ potential responses to such calls. One such call is the EPSRC-NIHR NetworkPlus call on “Technologies to enable independence for people living with dementia” (webinar 5 July and deadline 10 September). Another call is the EPSRC call on “Health Technologies Connectivity Awards” (deadline 3 September). A third one is the EPSRC pre-announcement on “Engineering Healthier Environments – Micro Network and Micro Network Plus”. \nTo simplify the organisation of the event\, we will order a sandwich-style lunch for all participants\, which will be delivered to the meeting room. After the event\, we recommend participants to split into smaller groups to have lunch/dinner separately (costs covered by themselves)\, which can help facilitate more follow-up discussions. \nThe event is mainly for ABCP Members\, but we also welcome non-members to attend if they are interested in developing and/or supporting R&I activities related to health data management. \nTentative Agenda (* = remote participation allowed)\n\n11-11:10 (*): Welcome and introduction\n11:10-11:30 (*): A short talk and discussion on NHS England SNSDEs (a London SNSDE speaker or Shujun Li)\n11:30-12:30 (*): Brief introduction of each other’s work (1)\n12:30-1:30: Lunch and networking\n1:30-2:30 (*): Brief introduction of each other’s work (2)\n2:30-4:00 (*): All-together and break-out discussions on potential responses to the EPSRC-NIHR NetworkPlus call on Technologies to enable independence for people living with dementia\n4:00-5:00: Small group discussions on potential collaborations and other funding opportunities\nAfter 5:00: Networking and self-organised dinners of separate sub-groups\n\nRemote Participation Information\nJoin the Zoom meeting using the following link or the meeting ID and passcode: \nhttps://ucl.zoom.us/j/98716547086?pwd=OymJVzb9uQCN1faWSsfUqdIimkRjbM.1 \nMeeting ID: 987 1654 7086\nPasscode: 576260
