 +In the last several years we have observed a growing interest in advanced AI systems achieving impressive task performance. However, there has also been an increased awareness of their complexity and challenging consequences of their possibly limited understandability to humans. In response, a number of research directions have been initiated. These include humanized or human-centered AI, as well as ethically aligned, ethically designed, or just ethical AI. For many of these ideas, the principal concept seems to be the explanatory capability of the AI system (XAI), e.g. via interpretable and explainable machine learning, inclusion of human background knowledge and adequate declarative knowledge, that could provide foundations not only for transparency and understandability, but also for a possible value alignment and human centricity, as the explanation is to be provided to humans. 
 +Recently, the term responsible AI (RAI) has been coined as a step beyond XAI. Discussion of RAI has again been strongly influenced by the “ethical” perspective. However, as practitioners in our fields we are convinced that the advancements of AI are way too fast, and the ethical perspective much too vague to offer conclusive and constructive results. We are convinced that the concepts of responsibility, and accountability should be considered primarily from the legal perspective, also because the operation of AI-based systems poses actual challenges to rights and freedoms of individuals. In the field of law, these concepts should obtain some well-defined interpretation, and reasoning procedures based on them should be clarified. The introduction of AI systems into the public, as well as the legal domain brings many challenges that have to be addressed. The catalogue of these problems include, but is not limited to(1) the type of liability adequate for the operation of AI (be it civil, administrative of criminal liability); (2) the (re)interpretation of classical legal concepts concerning the ascription of liability, such as causal link, fault or foreseeability and (3) the distribution of liability among the involved actors (AI developers, vendors, operators, customers etc.). As the notions relevant for the discussion of legal liability evolved on the basis of observation and evaluation of human behaviorthey are not easily transferable to the new and disputable domain of liability related to the operation of artificial intelligent systems. The goal of the workshop is to cover and integrate these problems and questionsbridging XAI and RAI by integrating methodological AIas well as the respective ethical and legal perspectives, also specifically with support of established concepts and methods regarding responsibility, and accountability.
  
-==== Workshop and description ====+==== Topics of interest ==== 
 +Our objective is to bring people from AI interested in XAI and RAI topics  and create an ample space for discussion with people from the field of legal scholarship and/or legal practice, and most importantly the vibrant AI & Law community. As many members of the AI and Law community join both perspectives, the JURIX conference is the perfect venue for the workshop. Together we would like to address some questions like: 
 +   * the notions of transparency, interpretability and explainability in XAI 
 +   * non-functional design choices for explainable and transparent AI systems 
 +   * legal consequences of black-box AI systems 
 +   * legal criteria and requirements for explainable, transparent, and responsible AI systems 
 +   * criteria of legal responsibility discussed in the context of intelligent systems operation and the role of explainability in liability ascription 
 +   * possible applications of XAI systems in the area of legal policy deliberation, legal practice, teaching and research 
 +   * legal implications of the use of AI systems in different spheres of societal life 
 +   * the notion of right to explanation 
 +   * relation of XAI and RAI to argumentation technologies 
 +   * approaches and architectures for XAI and RAI in AI systems 
 +   * XAI, RAI and declarative domain knowledge 
 +   * risk-based approach to analysis of AI systems and the influence of XAI on risk assessment 
 +   * incorporation of ethical values into AI systems, its legal interpretation and consequences 
 +   * XAI, privacy and data protection (conceptual and theoretical issues) 
 +   * XAI, certification and compliance
  
-Humanized AI (HAI) includes important perspectives in AI systems, including transparency and explainability (XAI). The idea of XAI has recently emerged as one of the most debated topics not only in the scientific community, but also in the general public. The design and use of AI algorithms raises important engineering, societal, ethical and legal challenges. In particular, AI-enhanced tools are used in commercial settings (advertisement, e-marketing), civil and labour law relations (such as employee assessment and recruitment processes), financial markets, penitentiary systems as well as in medical diagnosis etc. The decisions taken with the support of or directly based on the results generated by AI have more and more impact on the life of societies of individuals. Machine Learning tools are also intensively developed with an intention of application in the field of legal services provision and legal decision-making process. Understandability of the operations of these algorithms, as well as the provisioning of explanations with regard to the decision making process in the AI systems is of profound importance. Furthermore, only these features can lay foundations for the proper discussion of the ethical aspects of AI systems. The workshop’s idea is to discuss the current state of the art with respect to these broad yet important multidisciplinary challenges as well as the prospects for the future.+==== Important dates ====
