Discussion Topic: Building AI to Carry Consequence: The Case for Trauma-Informed AI across Systems of Care
12 p.m. to 1 p.m. Central Time
Presentation Overview
As artificial intelligence becomes more integrated into healthcare, education, and social services, its influence on vulnerable populations continues to grow. Many individuals served by these systems have experienced trauma, yet most AI tools are not designed with this context in mind. Without a trauma-informed approach, AI can misinterpret behavior and contribute to harm. Trauma-informed AI centers principles like safety, trust, empowerment, and cultural awareness to guide more responsible design and use. Embedding these principles is essential to creating more compassionate systems of care.
