• Ethical and legal aspects of Artificial Intelligence

In the field of research, the specific objectives of CETINIA include the generation of new knowledge in the field of IIT, cooperation in the analysis of socioeconomic problems that require research, and collaboration in the training of research personnel. In order to take advantage of the results of the research carried out within CETINIA, and its potential impact on its socio-economic environment, the Centre applies IIT to problems in the socio-economic sector, provides consulting and technological services, and collaborate in the identification and protection of exploitable results. To disseminate the results of research and technology transfer, as well as to promote University Rey Juan Carlos in general, CETINIA focuses on presenting results in high-quality scientific and technical fora, enhancing its penetration in the socio-economic sector, promoting the presence in international committees and professional associations, and liaise with other R&D&I actors.
