Abstract:

Nursing is centered on the theory and practice of caring. Caring goes well beyond caring to bring patients to health. It starts with respect and equanimity that is achieved by respecting the values of all patients, even if they are different from yours, and treating patients as they are. Taking inspiration from nursing, in this talk, I will discuss how a carative approach to AI should start with the real-world problem as experienced by the most vulnerable, listening to and understanding their values, meeting them where they are, working toward a solution to their problem all the way to the end (even if it involves a lot of grunt work and doesn't lead to an ICLR paper), and conducting a qualitative assessment of the entire solution by interviewing the affected communities.
