Hello Twitter! This is the new account for @sethlazar's research lab, Machine Intelligence and Normative Theory. Follow for insights into empirically- and technically grounded, philosophically ground-breaking, work on the moral and political philosophy of computational systems.
My @tedxsydney talk on automation/algorithms/AI in government decision-making is now available at youtube.com/watch?v=y6FDBDGN…. One item off the bucket list :-).

Jamie’s four principles of digital republicanism: preservation of basic institutions, reduction of domination, democratic sovereignty, and parsimony—minimise state intrusion.
And here are the mechanisms of counterpower: deliberative mini-publics, rights and standards, certification, professionalisation, tech tribunals, collective enforcement, and republican antitrust.
With thanks to the Australian Academy of Science and the Machine Learning and Normative Theory Lab (@MINTresearchlab) being formally launched today by the great @sethlazar
Happening tonight! We’ll be officially launching MINT with a lecture by @jamiesusskind on the digital republic. What a day to have this discussion, given events on this website.
