Goldsmiths, University of London is a world-leading centre of 
educational excellence where ground-breaking research meets innovative 
teaching and thinking. We're looking for inspiring and talented people 
to help build on our global reputation while also growing personally in 
a true learning organisation.

Summary

The role holder will be responsible for assisting with research, the 
development of external grant applications, the production of research 
publications and the organisation of events related to the AI Justice 
research programme led by Professor Lina Dencik.

This programme seeks to explore the meaning of social justice in an age 
of datafication and artificial intelligence (AI). Acknowledging that 
AI-based systems do not implicate everyone in the same way, thus 
creating new or amplifying existing inequalities, the programme 
investigates the following questions: What does social justice look like 
in an age of AI? In what ways are people and communities impacted by the 
growing use of AI in society, and what are their responses? What are the 
implications of AI for key areas such as policing, migration and social 
welfare? How might AI applications be regulated and how is 
accountability conceptualised in systems of automation?

Candidate

We are looking for an individual who can undertake basic research in the 
area of AI/data; contribute to the production of research publications 
and other programme outputs; organise and/or coordinate events related 
to the area of AI/data justice; support the programme’s efficient 
administration; and undertake any other duties that may be required from 
time to time.
