The Ada Lovelace Institute

The Ada Lovelace Institute - https://www.adalovelaceinstitute.org/ - (Ada) and the UK Arts & Humanities Research Council are building a network to bring a humanities-led, interdisciplinary perspective to studies of AI and data ethics. This project is led by Dr Alison Powell at the Department of Media and

Communication at the London School of Economics. The project is looking for a research officer (postdoctoral scholar or experienced, non-PhD track researcher) for an initial 13-month term (starting April 2020) to work between the LSE Department of Media and Communication and Ada. This post will help create an interdisciplinary network, by:

• framing a creative, humanities-led perspective on AI and data ethics, particularly through translation across disciplines and between research, practice and policy 
• building up a repository of research 
• convening workshops and events
• mapping and managing relationships between researchers and practitioners, and contributing themselves to creative, critical and novel research on data and AI ethics.

It will involve writing, convening, commissioning and creating.

Candidates who are comfortable working across disciplines, especially between arts, design, social science and computer science are warmly welcomed.
