The Responsible AI Workshop Series
Ethical reasoning isn’t just a matter of abstract thought—it’s something we embody through our attention, our relationships, and our physical presence.
This interactive workshop explores how principles from dance and embodied practice can deepen our understanding of moral imagination: the capacity to sense, empathize, and respond creatively to complex ethical situations. By engaging our bodies as a site of ethical insight, we’ll consider how embodied experience can inform more responsive approaches to the design of novel technologies and human-computer interactions. No dance experience is required—just openness, curiosity, and a willingness to explore ideas through movement and reflection.
This workshop is brought to you by the Responsible AI Practice as part of the RAI Workshop Series.
