AI in Everyday Life: Awareness, Ethics & Practical Use

14/05 @ 09:30 - 16:30

Free

Join us for a full-day interactive workshop designed to explore how artificial intelligence impacts your daily life—and how to engage with it critically, ethically, and effectively. Whether you’re curious, sceptical, or already using AI tools, this workshop is for you!

Who Will Be You Lecturer

Maria Sahakyan is a postdoctoral researcher at NYU Abu Dhabi, with a PhD in Computer Science and a background that bridges engineering, finance, and sustainability. Her work spans explainable AI, computational social science, and large-scale data analysis — with a focus on making algorithmic systems more transparent, fair, and grounded in real-world impact.

Maria’s current research projects include:

  • Analysing 80,000 peer reviews from 30,000 scientific articles to examine how reviewer tone and bias are shaped by authors‘ gender, race, and institutional rank
  • Studying scientist migration patterns and the effects of relocation on productivity, collaboration, and academic success
  • Investigating career discrimination using ~300 million LinkedIn CVs, with a focus on how gender and race influence professional trajectories
  • Developing explainable AI tools that improve how we interpret and audit machine learning models — the core of her dissertation

Beyond her academic work, Maria has contributed to projects in energy systems modelling, statistical consulting, and algorithmic transparency, bringing a unique interdisciplinary and global lens to her research.
