internationally. We work together with industry, communities and students to

Artificial Intelligence and Cyber Futures Institute (AICF) is a new research
Institute at Charles Sturt University aiming to become a world class research
centre of excellence in data science, artificial intelligence, and cyber
security, to pursue the agenda of regional discovery, showing how AI developed

regional communities, but society as a whole, creating a new comparative
advantage for Australia internationally.

by:
building trustworthy data-driven systems and embedding transparent
reporting practices in all AI-related research

exploit rural populations for the benefit of urban systems
encouraging respectful co-creation between regions and cities.
