Through this workshop, practitioners and researchers from diverse disciplinary backgrounds will come together to discuss and reflect on the cultural, ethical, political and social implications surrounding the design, development and deployment of intelligent systems. Through a series of hands-on activities, participants will explore participatory design approaches, tools and guidelines that should ground the design of intelligent systems. *Key Dates* May 15, 2018: position papers due!!!
