KurzbeschreibungThis course introduces students to the ethical, political and legal debates and transformations in relation to Artificial Intelligence and provides students with concepts and methods from the constructivist and interpretive social sciences to work towards responsible and democratic human-technology futures.
LernzielThe main objectives of the course are to enable students to 1) identify the ways in which human values and developments of AI technologies are entangled, 2) articulate what is significant about contemporary transformations in AI and society, and 3) participate and shape the relationship between human values and AI as citizens and professionals.
InhaltThe growing presence of AI tools for public use, for public administration, inside corporations and in scientific research raises many questions about the ethical, political, legal consequences of these technologies. This course is built around multiple sites of encounter among human values and AI, including bodies, persons, cities, labs, law, and environment. In each site, we inquire about what and whose values are being prioritized and with what consequences. The course also investigates existing best-practices around how to "align" human values with AI (e.g. human-centric design, alignment, reproducibility, transparency, explainability) and introduces students to regimes of ethics and governance of AI being proposed in jurisdictions around the world. Students learn to unpack the values and assumptions in existing techniques and frameworks for the design and governance of AI and to engage constructively with diverse stakeholders to shape the human-technology future towards aims that are reflexive, responsible, and democratic.
