Citizen-Centred Artificial Intelligence

AI in Learning & Education
Education exemplifies AI's qualitative turn, where generative systems produce cultural outputs such as essays, explanations, and creative work that demand contextual interpretation rather than simple benchmarking. Yet current educational AI often operates through narrow metrics that homogenise learning, perpetuating limited conceptions of intelligence whilst marginalising alternative ways of knowing.
AI, Law & Regulation
This theme explores how legal and regulatory frameworks must evolve beyond technical compliance to engage with the interpretive complexity of AI governance.
AI, Work & Organisations
Artificial intelligence is fundamentally reshaping how we work, how organisations operate, and how citizens interact with employers, government services, and civic institutions.
Climate & Sustainability
What does justice look like when we expand our circle of concern beyond humans? How can AI support climate mitigation or thriving ecologies rather than just efficient systems? This theme examines how we design technologies that recognise our interdependence with the living world.
