Professor Madeline Carr to join HTI on six-month fellowship
Professor Global Politics & Cybersecurity at University College London to join HTI
Welcome to our new fellow
How best to govern technologies like AI has become one of the most pressing contemporary questions. Why do different countries like the US, China and Australia take different approaches to governing AI? What are their expectations, anxieties and ambitions for AI technologies? How is this reflected in policy initiatives and regulation?
These are the questions Professor of Global Politics and Cybersecurity at University College London (UCL) Madeline Carr will be seeking to answer as she completes a comparative study of international AI governance approaches during her six-month fellowship at HTI, using Social Construction of Technology methodologies.
Professor Carr is currently Deputy Director of the REPHRAIN Centre for Protecting Citizens Online and Co-Director of the UCL Centre for Doctoral Training for Cyber Security, where her team have been conducting a number of international comparisons on tech policy, internet governance and human rights online.
Her research is at the forefront of combining International Relations theory and Science and Technology Studies in the context of cyber security and Internet governance.
