Workshop Themes

The workshop is organized into four topics:

Social and Artificial Intelligence

Collective Intelligence and Decision Making 

Data and Democracy

Ethics and Values

This workshop will explore how AI research can contribute to solving challenging problems by current-day communities. For example, what role can AI play in promoting conversational democracy? Specifically, this workshop studies literature in four distinct areas: (i) the impact of AI on democracy as a meaningful conversation; (ii) the importance of automated facilitation and decision-making methodologies and tools in social platforms; (iii) the importance of experiments in democracy and its social impact; and (iv) the importance of ethics and values in data and democracy.

To address such questions, the 3rd International Workshop on Democracy and AI (DemocrAI 2023) will bring together multidisciplinary researchers across AI and Social research and application domains. The objective is to share the current state of research and practice, explore emerging directions, and create opportunities across different strands of AI and Social research for collaboration. This workshop complements the objectives of the main conference by providing a forum for researchers, practitioners, educators and users in AI and such as those working in the areas of innovative and impactful real-world applications for social and democracy good.
