“春风化雨乐未央，行健不息须自强”。校歌里的这句歌词，每每成为清寒岁月里最温暖的声音，回响在清华人耳畔。

时值新型冠状病毒疫情肆虐全国，“春风”既是“春风似剪刀”的力量，剪除病毒滋生的余孽；也是“润物细无声”的温情，化作滋润人心的甘霖；还是高挥春秋笔的气度，在历史的语境中体认当下的世界与国族。“春风讲堂”恰是源自清华人对于“春风化雨”“自强不息”的重新阐释。

“春风讲堂”系列讲座将约请校内不同领域的专家学者登上讲台，回顾历史经验中的疫情挑战，共论人类社会应对方略。讲座从师生的普遍关切出发，采用不同学科视角，征文考献，述往思来，为师生积极理性应对疫情提供知识智慧。我们希望，知识的理性和行动的勇气，终将如春风驱散笼罩大地的阴霾；而百年的清华，期待在春和景明之日迎接学子归来。

演讲内容简介：

Recent achievements and advancements in AI have outpaced what anyone would have thought imaginable even five to ten years ago. For instance, we are fast approaching human parity across many areas of AI — speech, vision, language and knowledge. But many practitioners building AI technology and deploying AI products have not always thought through the societal implications such as fairness and transparency. In this talk, Dr. Shum will discuss how we can best address these societal challenges before the next AI innovation and development cycle. Up to this point, the answer has centered on principles – guidelines to help companies and countries navigate the complexities and implications of AI. But principles alone are no longer enough—industry, academia and government need to take actions now to move from principles to practices. Dr. Shum will share what Microsoft AI and Research have been practicing, from doing research in explainable and interpretable AI, to leveraging useful tools like datasheets and checklists commonly used in other industries, to forming an internal AI ethics committee providing guidelines for shipping AI products, to sharing and learning best practices with other companies through the Partnership in AI.
