MA Philosophy & Artificial Intelligence
The emerging prevalence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across all areas of our modern world accelerates the need to actively address the ethical and theoretical challenges that arise in connection with the uses of data and application of AI. Poised at the intersection of the humanities and technology, this innovative Masters degree can equip you with the combination of thinking, communication, and technical skills widely sought in sectors ranging from professional services, to the creative industries and government.
“We offer a mind-expanding year, after which graduates will have an enviable combination of skills and knowledge. Apart from the intrinsic value to your own interests, you will be able to play a pivotal role between colleagues with different levels of technical expertise in AI and colleagues with none, thus bridging the knowledge and communications gaps between them.” Professor A C Grayling CBE, MA, DPhil (Oxon), FRSL, FRSA Founder and Principal
