Academic Call: Critiquing UNESCO's AI Ethics Framework

The call includes presenting a comprehensive critique in relation to the final draft of 'UNESCO’s recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence' and formulating an alternative recommendation on the subject.

All critiques and proposals will be compiled and submitted to the Foreign Ministry to ensure that, during the UNESCO meetings scheduled for late October, the Islamic Republic of Iran presents well-informed positions and alternative recommendations on the subject. 

Accepted critiques along with a translation of the aforementioned recommendations will be published in a book by the Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence.

The Centre for Contemporary Jurisprudence has completed the translation of UNESCO's final draft on artificial intelligence ethics recommendations. The translation will be provided to verified researchers, selected based on their qualifications and expertise, who are expected to evaluate the document critically and submit their feedback and recommendations to the center.

Once critiques and alternative recommendations are compiled and published in a book, they will receive financial support.

As of today, until October 21, 2021, eligible seminary and university students can submit their scientific resumes along with a detailed explanation of their expertise related to the subject to the Department of Contemporary Jurisprudence (Fiqh) through @rfiqhci on Eitaa. Upon verification, the center will establish contact and schedule the next steps accordingly.
