Axiological Foundations of Generative AI Systems: An alignment beyond Human Values

The main objective of this research is to critically examine and strengthen the axiological (values-based) foundations of GAI systems. In particular, the project aims to identify the values (explicit or implicit) that current state-of-the-art generative models operate under, evaluate the alignment of these values with widely endorsed human and societal values, and develop a framework or set of guidelines to improve value alignment in future generative AI systems.
