PROJECT OVERVIEW
“Freedom and AI” take us deep into understanding the essential facets of AI, starting with its definition and its operational dependence on algorithms.
We explore how AI collects and interprets data and consider the potential risks it may pose. We delve into the intersection of AI and human rights, examining its influences and impacts. We further probe into the realms of freedom of speech and privacy, scrutinizing how AI shapes these fundamental rights. We ask whether AI is creating an internet singularity, becoming a dominant force that defines our online experiences. We seek expert opinions and forecast the future of AI, while also taking into account public perceptions and expectations.

Freedom and AI
The “Freedom and AI” initiative is fundamentally conceptualized to elucidate and edify individuals about the profound implications of AI on our freedom of expression.
This project serves as a convergence point for a diversified audience, which includes experts, civil society members, ordinary citizens, academic scholars, representatives of the technology industry, and various international stakeholders. The aim is to cultivate dynamic and interactive dialogues, contributing to an enhanced understanding of the role AI plays in shaping our freedoms of expression.
The emphasis here is on creating a comprehensive platform where the complexities of AI can be demystified and its broader societal implications can be critically analyzed. The discussions focus not only on the technical aspects of AI but also on its intersection with human rights, its influence on freedom of speech, privacy rights, and the possibility of an AI-dominated internet singularity.
A holistic approach is adopted to include perspectives from all quarters. Expert opinions, providing a broader understanding of AI’s future trajectory, are sought, while public opinions and expectations are equally valued.
Finally, an open invitation is extended to all, to share thoughts, insights, and opinions on this pressing topic. Through collective understanding and collaborative efforts, the challenges posed by AI are navigated, contributing towards shaping our shared digital future.
