Centre for Data Futures, King's College London

Active

Description

The Centre for Data Futures is a research centre of King's College London pioneering participatory infrastructure across the entire AI lifecycle. It envisions a future where communities, whether professional groups like GPs, judges and educators, or civic organisations and neighbourhoods, actively shape the AI systems that affect their lives and maintain agency over the data generated. Its work rests on two foundations: data empowerment, where communities control and benefit from the data they generate, and participatory AI interfaces, AI systems that learn from, augment and adapt to collective human intelligence. It is one of the four research centres of the Digital Futures Institute and runs the Data Empowerment Clinic.
