Human-Centered AI Research at Claremont Graduate University

The AI for Humanity Lab at Claremont Graduate University develops ethical, human-centered AI that amplifies human potential, upholds dignity, and creates equitable opportunities for all.

About The Lab

We are a research, teaching, and innovation hub at the intersection of artificial intelligence and human values. Through rigorous scholarship, student-led initiatives, and cross-sector partnerships, we ask the questions that matter most — not just what AI can do, but what it should do. Our work is grounded in transparency, fairness, and accountability.
