Societal AI is a new term coined by Salim Sheikh (reference: LinkedIn Profile).

"Societal AI" is about incorporating human-centred perspectives and humane requirements (including constraints) when designing AI algorithms, agents and systems.

Not only in terms of the capabilities of AI technology but more importantly what we are doing with it; potentially meshed with the behaviours, attitudes, intentions, feelings, personalities and expectations of people.

At the same time, we cannot afford to leave important decisions and principles that affect fairness, accountability, transparency and ethics (FATE) to businesses, governments and policy writers. Instead, as citizens, we must influence how AI is leveraged to help shape and influence “AI for Social Good” – for the benefit of society.
