Artificial Intelligence and Democracy - Richard Leonard MSP and Professor Ewa Luger

With developments in artificial intelligence (AI) speeding up, what effect will this technology have on our democracy?

And how, as citizens and as a democracy, should we react?

This Scotland's Futures Forum podcast, recorded in May 2023, explored the potential impact of AI on our lives and the implications we should consider.

Featuring expert contributions from Professor Ewa Luger, Professor of Human-Data Interaction at the University of Edinburgh, and Richard Leonard MSP, convener of the Scottish Parliament’s Public Audit Committee.
