Position
Assistant Professor of Participatory AI, Athena Institute
Research focus

Societal participation in AI development

Research Description
AI and other digital technologies are rapidly changing our societies, with many opportunities, but also many risks and challenges. The development of AI is currently spurred by Big Government and Big Tech, leaving everyday people and public values often at bay. To stimulate the development of AI along democratic values and aligned with the needs and interests of everyday people and (health) professionals, we do co-creative participatory research on the development of AI (e.g. in the health sector) at the Athena Institute.
