Intel Research Center for Responsible AI (RESUMAIS)

Advancing responsible AI

In February 2024, ELLIS Alicante joined the Intel Research Center for Responsible Human-AI Systems (RESUMAIS)—Intel’s strategic investment in European responsible AI research with four leading institutions.

What we’re doing

ELLIS Alicante brings expertise in:

Making AI Fair for Everyone

Identifying biased data that causes discriminatory outcomes in loans, hiring, and critical decisions
Measuring inequality in social media algorithms
Ensuring AI performs well for all groups, not just privileged ones

Building Trust in AI

Making AI decisions understandable to regular people
Designing AI that works with humans as partners, not replacements
Ensuring compliance with European laws protecting rights and privacy

Perfecting Human-AI Teamwork

Systems that know when to ask for human judgment vs. handle tasks automatically
Preventing over-reliance on AI recommendations
Interfaces that give people real control, not just illusion of oversight

Real-World Impact Large-scale studies with thousands of participants generating evidence about how humans and AI actually interact.

Impact

“We are honored to have been selected by Intel for this significant initiative. It reflects the international visibility and research excellence of ELLIS Alicante.” — Dr. Nuria Oliver, Director and Co-Founder

Intel’s support has enabled:

✓ Cutting-edge research infrastructure for large-scale human-AI studies ✓ Support for doctoral students pursuing pioneering work ✓ International collaboration with leading German institutions ✓ Translation of research into practical guidelines for industry

Why this matters

Public trust in AI depends on demonstrated commitment to fairness, transparency, and accountability. RESUMAIS research ensures AI systems earn that trust through responsible practices that protect rights and promote human welfare.
