In a new essay, Helene Ratner and Rikke Frank Jørgensen discuss how AI might affect the power dynamics between the state and its citizens and what implications this could have for democratic control, accountability, and citizens’ rights.
The essay is published as part of a larger essay series under the auspices of the Power Investigation 2.0:
“Artificial intelligence changes the conditions for all citizens, as profiling and algorithmic predictions, in particular, bring about a new perspective on the citizen. It is therefore crucial to examine the welfare state’s use of AI from a power perspective.”
