Module

The "AI for Humanity and Sustainability" module is an innovative interdisciplinary educational program that explores the development of artificial intelligence technology and its social impact from a humanities perspective. This module covers various socio-humanistic topics such as ethics, justice, international relations, and future societies, based on an understanding of the fundamental principles of artificial intelligence. It explores inclusive applications of AI for human and global sustainability, as well as strategies for harmonious coexistence between humans and AI. The module invites participation from students who wish to engage in discussions about the profound changes in society brought about by new technologies, whether they come from a humanities background with a general fear of AI or from an engineering background that views AI purely as a technology. Leading universities worldwide are increasingly integrating AI with the humanities, and this module is Korea's first AI-humanities convergence education curriculum, aligning with global trends.
