Project: The Conditio Humana in the Age of AI
What does it mean to be active as a human under technological conditions shaped by algorithmic systems? Drawing on Hannah Arendt’s notion of the Conditio Humana, understood as the ensemble of conditions under which human activity takes shape and acquires meaning, this project sketches a contemporary vision of the Vita Activa. Moving beyond master–slave dualisms, it explores how AI reshapes the quasi-transcendental conditions that render human activity intelligible. In pursuit of a philosophy of co-activity (Mit-Tätigsein), it investigates the entangled yet asymmetrical relationship between human and machine agency and argues that the concept of activity itself must be reformulated in light of these technological conditions.

Projekte
Desirable Digitalisation
Rethinking AI for Just and Sustainable Futures.
We investigate how to design AI (artificial intelligence) and other digital technologies in a responsible way, placing the questions of social justice and environmental sustainability at the very heart of our work.
Our research program is a collaboration between the Universities of Cambridge and Bonn and numerous international partners, and is funded by the Mercator Foundation in Germany.
