+As artifical intelligence (AI) systems have come to permeate almost every aspect
+of our lives, little attention has been paid to its impacts on our complex
+societies. From research and reports indicating that AI systems discriminate
+against minorities and have adverse effects on privacy, their trustworthiness
+has decreased substantially, especially with the advent of increasingly complex
+and intransparent models. This fact has given rise to a new research field
+concerned with increasing an AI's trustworthiness. This work gives an
+introduction to the state of trustworthiness of AIs and discusses ideas on what
+trust means in different contexts. Furthermore, approaches to increasing an AI's
+trustworthiness are discussed from a technical and computational as well as
+social perspective. The results of this discussion are that a combination of
+both technical and social approaches yields the biggest benefits in terms of
+increasing trust in AIs. We close with concluding remarks about further research
+directions and potentially interesting developments of AI systems.
