Description

Many people associate artificial intelligence (AI) with the promise that it will make politics
more efficient and better equipped to respond to societal developments. The collection
and analysis of large datasets, the measurement of citizens‘ behaviour and interests, and
the continuous evaluation of state actions through analytical AI are hoped to deliver more
rational and tailored solutions. At the same time, early applications show that AI does not
reduce existing inequalities; in some cases, it even exacerbates them.

Upgrade Democracy

Democracy is changing, not least in digital spaces. We mustn’t passively standby but get active. It is time for an upgrade for public discourse (societal level), infrastructures (systemic level), and foresight capabilities (political level). In our project “Upgrade Democracy”, we build bridges between diverse, international actors and disseminate solutions that successfully counter disinformation in their respective contexts and/or innovatively use digital tools to strengthen democracy.
