Join a forward-thinking discussion with leading experts as we dissect the transformative impact of Artificial Intelligence, Large Language Models (LLMs) and Data on the analysis of politics and the political landscape itself. From AI’s growing role in policy drafting and voter targeting to the weaponization of disinformation, the foundations of democracy are being challenged and reshaped.
Our panel of distinguished speakers will cut through the hype to explore critical questions, including:
· How can AI help us to decode political images?
· What new forms of data journalism are enabled through AI and how does this change politics reporting?
· Can AI be harnessed to strengthen democratic engagement and policymaking?
Speakers include Associate Professor Roxana Radu (Jesus College, University of Oxford), Dr Linda Li (London School of Economics) and Joey D’Urso (The Times and Sunday Times). The panel will be moderated by Professor Ralph Schroeder (OII, University of Oxford). Discover the opportunities and potential risks on the cutting edge of technology and power.
