Traditionally AI systems have been built to optimize performance and have not necessarily encapsulated personalization and fairness when automating decision-making. As the technologies we develop become more intelligent and autonomous, AI must be fair, unbiased, secure and applied ethically. OptimalAI's efforts to develop responsible, human-compatible AI takes several factors into account, including the need to understand how people engage with and trust AI systems. There's a need to explain the operation of AI models and improve people's understanding of how AI systems operate. Our strategy gauges the negative consequences or potential misuse of AI systems, including ways to mitigate human and AI biases, and the measurement of people's perceptions of AI. We leverage Human Computer Interaction visualisations to support interpretability, understanding, and interactive explorations of AI models.

As we stand at the threshold of artificial general intelligence (AGI), AI research organizations carry the responsibility to shape its development in a manner that serves the best interests of humanity. A human-centric approach, rooted in ethics, safety, value alignment, and collaboration with experts, transcends being a mere suggestion; it stands as a moral obligation. By adopting this approach, OptimalAI and its partners are collectively working towards the secure and beneficial realization of AGI, all while safeguarding the future of humanity.  OptimalAI's research philosophy, therefore, prioritizes the user, promotes accessibility, ensures ethical AI and emphasizes transparency and accountability.
