This week I went to Vienna to attend the Digital Humanism Summit on AI and Democratic Sustainability. The goal of this summit was to identify possible responses to the worrisome concerns of generative AI for open democratic socities, but also the opportunities for meeting it through collective action such as policy recommendations. This was a two day event organized by the Digital Humanism Initiative, the OSUN Hannah Arendt Humanities Network at Bard College and the Institute for Human Sciences (IWM). I was invited by Roger Berkowitz (Bard College) to a panel moderated by himself on the sociopolitical impact of AI with Enrico Nardelli (Informatics Europe & Univ. Roma “Tor Vergata”) and Colin Megill (Pol.is). The conclusions and recommendations emerging from the sessions were presented in the last day of the summit by Hannes Werthner (TU Wien).
