We’re Getting AI and Democracy Wrong


Listen Later

Democracy is about how we ought to distribute power in society and, more specifically, it’s the claim that people ought to have a significant say in how they are ruled. So if we’re talking about AI’s impact on democracy, we should focus on how our use of AI interact with our concern that democracy be respected, upheld, and improved.  

But my guest Ted Lechterman, UNESCO Chair in AI Ethics and Governance at IE University’s School of Humanities, argues that our current discussion on AI and democracy is far too narrow. We need to widen our aperature if we’re going to discuss and ultimately address the issues that really matter.
