Eva Erman: Artificial Intelligence and the Political Legitimacy of Global Governance
Research seminar with Eva Erman. AbstractThe study of the social and ethical impact of AI is still in its infancy and contributions to the field have to keep up with the continuous developments of the important procedural aspects of good AI governance. One of the most important properties of good governance is political legitimacy.
