More checks make AI fairer

In an article in the journal Patterns, Olga Russakovsky, associate professor of computer science and associate director of the Princeton AI Lab, argues for a multidimensional approach in which fairness is evaluated on several levels depending on the context of the application.

Michael Skinnider: using generative AI to accelerate discovery of small molecules

When the human body breaks down food or drugs or even its own tissue, it produces small molecules called metabolites. Using analytical techniques, researchers can typically detect thousands of small molecules in a sample of human tissue. While many of these molecules may be known, much of the small molecules in a given sample are unidentifiable to researchers for one reason or another. Identifying these unknowns is a question of scientific interest.
