The 2024 Oxford-Berlin Colloquium will be held in Oxford in December 2024 and bring together scholars and professionals to discuss a variety of topics, hosted by Dr Caroline Green (Oxford) and Luise Muller (Freie Universitat Berlin).
AI technologies, from large language models to self-driving cars, raise fundamental philosophical questions. The aim of the Oxford-Berlin colloquium is to connect early-career researchers doing ground-breaking work on the moral and political philosophy of AI and related fields, and to provide a forum for presenting work in progress, receiving valuable feedback in a constructive environment, and exchanging ideas with leading researchers and professionals from industry and policy.
CALL FOR PAPERS: We invite abstract submissions from early-career researchers working on the moral and political philosophy of AI/computing. Topics can include, but are not limited to: privacy, fairness and bias, autonomy and manipulation, sustainability, democracy, relationships, responsibility, and meaning in computing technologies.

Full details on speakers and programme will be announced soon.
