Award Objectives & Description 

The BMO Responsible AI Fellowships are intended to help prepare future-ready Responsible artificial intelligence (AI) graduate-level researchers. They do so by encouraging research aimed at understanding and responsibly influencing the impact of AI on Society, necessarily drawing on not only technological aspects but also those related (but not limited) to arts, decision making, health, law and policy.

These awards promote work that transcends traditional academic disciplines, thereby encouraging innovative solutions to complex problems.
