Navigating AI Criticism with Systems Thinking
This session is for anyone working with or around AI whether you’re influencing policy, shaping strategy, designing products, or making organisational decisions. If you’re interested in understanding how AI influences power dynamics, social structures, and democratic integrity, this is for you.
In our Morgenbooster in June, we explored how AI can be a force for good. This time, we’re flipping the lens.
AI is already transforming our systems but not always for the better. In this session, transition designers Lisbeth Christiansen and Kristian Ohm will take us into the less visible, often uncomfortable truths about AI’s role in reinforcing inequality, deepening surveillance, and accelerating extractive logics across sectors.
This isn’t about dystopia. It’s about awareness, responsibility, and intended insight.
Together, we’ll examine:
How AI is embedded in and shaped by broader systemic paradigms and what that means for sustainability, equity, and human agency.
The risks of uncritical implementation, and how unintended consequences show up across public and private sectors.
Where the real leverage lies: how professionals across disciplines can help shape AI's trajectory from within the system.
You’ll leave with sharper systemic awareness and actionable pathways to challenge and shift AI’s role in society, from compliance to critical intervention.
