About Us
Our Story
AIRES at Brown is a collegiate chapter of the national AIRES organization. We were founded in Spring 2019 to bring AI ethics discussion to Brown University's campus. As a newer chapter, we are actively looking for new members to join us!
Our Goals
As a chapter, our main goal is to help students currently at Brown to consider AI ethics before they move into industry and make important decisions in the field. No matter what area of study a Brown student pursues, AI will undoubtedly impact all facets of society in the near future and thus it is important for students to learn the possible implications of modern AI systems.
