Subject: Three-year fellowship on AI and Social Inequalities – University of Liverpool
The University of Liverpool is offering a range of three-year Fellowships to explore AI topics. The Department of Communication and Media, and the Digital Media and Society Institute will host a Fellowship focused on the role of AI in increasing or mitigating social inequalities.
Applications are due by 1st of December.
The Fellowship in this area will develop a programme of work examining how AI systems can challenge or perpetuate structural social inequalities in digital societies. Research will combine computational social science with critical humanities perspectives to explore the impact of AI across welfare, employment, education, media, and/or justice. It will address the intersection of digital and AI divides with race, class, and disability, and may consider participatory methods for democratising AI development. Methodological innovation may include blending quantitative, ethnographic, and algorithmic methods to create tools that democratise access to or the design of AI for affected communities. The Fellow will collaborate with a set of civil society organisations, trade unions, and digital rights groups who already partner with the University.
