AI & Ethics

Exploring the ethics of AI in society

In this workshop, participants explore ethical questions that arise from the use of AI in various areas of society. Using theoretical input, interactive stations, and discussions, they explore various aspects of AI in groups (e.g., image-generating AI, click workers, current scenarios in AI development, etc.). The aim is to create a sound basis for argumentation in ethical decision-making processes and to enable participants to represent their own points of view in discussions in a differentiated manner and to substantiate them with arguments.
