📣 Big news: I’ve signed a contract with @politybooks for a monograph, tentatively titled Recoding Democracy: AI and the Fight for Democracy’s Future.
📖 The #book will argue that #AI forces us to reassess what makes democracy valuable and how that value should be realized. 1/

Does Rawls's duty of civility rule out disruptive political disobedience? Andrei Bespalov argues it doesn't—provided coercion is reasonably justified. Join his talk:

🪑 This will be the first major research project of the @UNESCO Chair that we inaugurated at @IEuniversity a few weeks ago. A publication date isn't yet set, but I’m eager to get this out quickly. Stay tuned for previews and updates! #aiethics#aigovernance#unescochair 5/5

Full house for the launch of the @UNESCO Chair in AI Ethics and Governance at @IEuniversity !🚀
With inspiring remarks from @gabramosp and a thought-provoking keynote from Prof. @tlechtable , we explored the challenges of "ethicophobia" in AI governance.
A big thank you to our panelists Linda Eggert, David Leslie, @luzrello, and Oliver Smith for discussing the ethical frontiers of #AI. 🙏
Congrats to @iehumanities , specially @catalinatejero and @tlechtable !
This Chair is a huge step for IE and a vital opportunity to advance human-centered AI research. Excited for the journey ahead! 🌐💡More info on the Chair and its work here: ie.edu/school-of-humanities/…#UNESCO#Ethics#Governance#Innovation#Tech
How can social entrepreneurship contribute to social justice? @johannamair and I have a new piece out in @SSIReview, arguing that building institutional capacity is key. The piece stems from a larger study recently published in @osofficer on John Rawls and social enterprise.
Understanding how social innovation directly affects people’s lives is essential. But by focusing primarily on measurable impacts on individuals, we risk falling into familiar traps. @tlechtable & @johannamair take an organizational approach: ssir.org/articles/entry/soci…

Excited to represent @iehumanities at @WorldSummitAI in Amsterdam this October. #WSAI24 gathers global experts across sectors and fields to showcase new perspectives and ideas on artificial intelligence. I'll deliver a #keynote on how we can make #AI consistent with #democracy.
