AiNed ELSA Labs

In an AiNed ELSA Lab, scientists, companies, governments, and citizens work together to explore how to develop and apply AI responsibly. ELSA stands for Ethical, Legal, and Societal Aspects. Each lab evaluates AI applications against ethical and legal standards within a specific field of application, such as healthcare, energy, mobility, or the engineering industry.

Based on specific use cases, the labs develop and test ethical guidelines and legal frameworks for AI. Citizens contribute their ideas and get involved through co-creation, ensuring that solutions meet the needs of society.
