Reboot Special #3 | On Constitutional Reform

18/7/2023

 
Moderated by Nico A. Heller
Live on YouTube | Tuesday, 25 July 2023 | Starting at 04:00 PM CET
Written constitutions, such as the American or the German Constitution, are treated often almost like divine texts or laws (timeless and eternal, written in stone), that can be referred to by anyone, but only a 'chosen few' (constitutional judges) are allowed to interpret them, when it comes to legal disputes.

Reboot Special #2 | On AI and International Cooperation

11/7/2023

 
Moderated by Nico A. Heller
​​​Live on YouTube | Tuesday, 18 July 2023 | Starting at 04:00 PM CET
In this Reboot Special we talk about the strengths and limitations of current artificial intelligence (AI), why AI may become a dangerous instrument of disinformation, why superintelligent AI may be closer (years) than most previously expected (decades) and how this could yield (through human actions) to (intentional or not) catastrophic outcomes (including a spectrum from AI-driven devastating wars to the extreme risk of extinction). This we argue motivates the need for international cooperation to avoid, for example, the catastrophic risks arising from AI arms races – or indeed from economic races, driven by similar self-destructive game-theoretical competition.

Reboot Special #1 | On Corporate Citizenship

4/7/2023

 
​Moderated by Nico A. Heller
​​​Live on YouTube | Tuesday, 11 July 2023 | Starting at 10:00 AM CET
Existing law provides that directors must “act in the best interests of the corporation.” Bob Hinkley, a renowned American attorney and one of the Democracy School’s regular dialogue partners proposes a Code for Corporate Citizenship that would add “but not at the expense of severe damage to the environment, human rights, public health and safety, dignity of employees or welfare of the communities in which the corporation operates.” He believes that, if adopted, this simple addition to corporate law would fundamentally transform the way corporations (can) operate and (must) do business.

Thanks to everyone who has backed our campaign and petition in support of Ukraine and Ukrainians thus far.

Participants didn’t just come from different places, but also different walks of life, generations and social groups. This resonance is beautiful.
