Information
Aims, contents and method of the course
Currently there are efforts at supernational level, including the European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN), towards governing Artificial Intelligence (AI), but how can this be done at a global level? In this course, we will explore the question of how effective governance mechanisms for AI on a global scale might look like. Drawing from the disciplines of political philosophy and philosophy of technology, this seminar intends to be a starting point to critically examine the theoretical underpinnings and practical challenges associated with crafting policies and frameworks to regulate AI technologies at an international level.
