Panel on the “Ethics of AI Agents”
Recap of the Event
On 25 September 2025, LMU Munich hosted the panel discussion “Ethics of AI Agents” at the Carl Friedrich von Siemens Stiftung, in cooperation with MCML, the appliedAI Institute for Europe, the TUM Think Tank, the Bavarian State Ministry for Digital Affairs, the Liquid Legal Institute, and the Technical University of Munich.
With around 80 participants, it was the most attended event in the Comparing Notes on Trustworthy AI series so far. Experts from mathematics, philosophy, and computational linguistics discussed how increasingly autonomous AI systems challenge established frameworks of trust, responsibility, and governance.
Moderated by Johannes Büchs, the discussion featured insights from MCML PIs Gitta Kutyniok and Barbara Plank, as well as Lena Kästner. Topics included the mathematical foundations of trustworthy AI, value trade-offs in governance, and the importance of linguistic diversity and uncertainty in human–AI interaction.
