AI Principle: Human-led

We empower people through human-led decision-making

  • We make human-led decisions, enabled by technology, where humans are responsible for processes and outcomes.
  • We design and work with AI intentionally and transparently to benefit humans and society, minimising environmental risks.
  • We value human dignity, wellbeing, diversity, creativity and experience when engaging with AI.

What this means in context

  • Staff and students make intentional choices about how and why they engage with technologies.

Knowledge creation and sharing

  • Human-centric innovation is a key differentiator for Deakin-designed systems.
  • Deakin collaborates across sector, industry and community to design and implement AI.

Institutional leadership and governance

  • Deakin works with technology vendors committed to human value and social benefit.
  • Where possible, Deakin gives our community choice about how and when they engage.
  • Deakin actively contributes and collaborates on global AI research, development and discourse.

Questions to ask

  • How will this add value to my work or benefit society?
