OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Mathematical models are used to inform decisions across many sectors including climate change, finance, and epidemics. But models are not perfect representations of the real world – they are partial, uncertain and often biased. What, then, does responsible modelling look like? And how can we apply this ethical framework to new AI modelling methods?
Erica Thompson is Associate Professor of Modelling for Decision Making at UCL’s Department of Science, Technology, Engineering and Public Policy (STEaPP), and the author of ‘Escape From Model Land’ (2022).
Please email external-relations@maths.ox.ac.uk to register to attend in person.
The lecture will be broadcast on the Oxford Mathematics YouTube Channel on Wednesday 25 June at 5-6pm and any time after (no need to register for the online version).
