As a multidisciplinary collaboration, the centre brings together leading research environments in technology, law, social sciences and philosophy both in Norway and internationally. TRUST explores how AI can be developed and used in ways that are fair, transparent, sustainable and beneficial to society as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The research spans AI theory, methods, law and practical studies. The results will be tested in areas such as healthcare, transport, public administration, security, and climate and environment. Users and citizens take an active part in this work, helping to test different solutions and assess how reliable research and innovation actually are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>NR contributes with expertise in machine learning, data analysis and methods for trustworthy AI. We develop solutions that make artificial intelligence more robust, transparent and verifiable, and technology that can be used in practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Research that combines technology, ethics and law<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Trustworthy AI is not only about precise algorithms, but also about understanding the ethical, social and legal consequences of the technology. How does artificial intelligence affect democracy, legal safeguards and the environment? In which areas should we move quickly, and where should we proceed with caution?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At TRUST, research spans everything from theoretical models and technical solutions to ethical guidelines and legal frameworks. The aim is to develop artificial intelligence that is understandable, inclusive and responsible across different domains and uses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Knowledge for the future<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The centre also aims to educate the next generation of AI experts and strengthen national expertise in responsible technology. Our ambition is for Norway to become a driving force in the development of responsible AI, benefiting research, industry and society at large.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\t<div class=\"nr-spacer nr-spacer-large wp-block-nr-spacer\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\t<div class=\"nr-spacer nr-spacer-small wp-block-nr-spacer\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<p><strong>To learn more about TRUST<br>and our role in the centre, get in touch.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\t\t<div id=\"post-type-multi-block_914c21b74d3b27bd66aa32b914b0f06d\" class=\"wp-block-post-type-multi type-manual style-card-bc_employee t2-grid\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"t2-grid-item-col-12\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/nr.no\/en\/employees\/kjersti-aas\/\" class='card-employee'>\n\t\t\t\t\t<figure>\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2026\/01\/kjersti-aas-20.jpg\" alt=\"\">\n\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card-employee__content\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"card-employee__name\">Kjersti Aas<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"card-employee__position\">Research Director SAMBA<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" height=\"24\" width=\"24\" class=\"t2-icon t2-icon-arrowforward\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M15.9 4.259a1.438 1.438 0 0 1-.147.037c-.139.031-.339.201-.421.359-.084.161-.084.529-.001.685.035.066 1.361 1.416 2.947 3l2.882 2.88-10.19.02c-8.543.017-10.206.029-10.29.075-.282.155-.413.372-.413.685 0 .313.131.53.413.685.084.046 1.747.058 10.29.075l10.19.02-2.882 2.88c-1.586 1.584-2.912 2.934-2.947 3-.077.145-.085.521-.013.66a.849.849 0 0 0 .342.35c.156.082.526.081.68-.001.066-.035 1.735-1.681 3.709-3.656 2.526-2.53 3.606-3.637 3.65-3.742A.892.892 0 0 0 23.76 12a.892.892 0 0 0-.061-.271c-.044-.105-1.124-1.212-3.65-3.742-1.974-1.975-3.634-3.616-3.689-3.645-.105-.055-.392-.107-.46-.083\"\/><\/svg>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-primary-200-background-color has-background\">\n<p><strong>TRUST at a glance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Centre: TRUST &#8211; <br>The Norwegian Centre for Trustworthy AI<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Partners: The University of Oslo, Norwegian Computing Center, SINTEF and 77 other partners from research, industry, the public sector and civil society<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Period: 2025-2030<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Funding: TRUST is one of six national centres for artificial intelligence and is supported by The Research Council of Norway<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent-1024x576.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent-1536x864.png 1536w, https:\/\/nr.no\/content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/11\/funding-transparent.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"nr-spacer nr-spacer-medium wp-block-nr-spacer\">\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-background\" style=\"background-color:#beb3c4\">\n<p><strong>Additional resources<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trust-aicentre.no\/english\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TRUST<\/a> &#8211; external website<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/search\/results\/all\/?fetchDeterministicClustersOnly=true&amp;heroEntityKey=urn%3Ali%3Aorganization%3A110000831&amp;keywords=trust%20%E2%80%93%20the%20norwegian%20centre%20for%20trustworthy%20ai&amp;origin=RICH_QUERY_TYPEAHEAD_HISTORY&amp;position=0&amp;searchId=bdded8c7-594c-4d2b-82c7-6027a278f6dd&amp;sid=P(%3B&amp;spellCorrectionEnabled=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TRUST on LinkedIn<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About TRUST TRUST is Norway&#8217;s national research centre for trustworthy artificial intelligence (AI).
