Penn Washington AI

Aims to advance Penn’s pioneering work in developing and deploying data technologies beneficially and justly, across the defense, law, economics, medicine, nursing, engineering, design, energy, communications, and education sectors. 

Our Focus:

Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how institutions govern, innovate, and deliver services across society. Penn Washington’s AI initiative connects the University of Pennsylvania’s pioneering research in data science and artificial intelligence with the federal policy landscape. Drawing on expertise from across Penn’s schools—from engineering and medicine to law, business, and the humanities—the initiative highlights how emerging technologies can be developed and deployed beneficially and justly. By convening scholars, policymakers, and practitioners, Penn Washington translates Penn’s interdisciplinary work on responsible AI into practical insights that inform national policy conversations and support the responsible adoption of data technologies across sectors.
