Centre for Philosophy and AI Research {PAIR}
The Centre for Philosophy and AI Research {PAIR} was established in 2022 with funding from a prestigious Alexander von Humboldt Professorship (Prof. Vincent C. Müller) at the University of Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU, est. 1742). Our themes are fundamental issues of AI, both normative (ethical) and descriptive (theoretical) and we expect that PAIR will soon be one of the internationally leading institutions in our field. Our research and activities aim to have deep impact towards a better society through intellectual progress in both AI and philosophy. Our vision is to set the agenda in the philosophy and ethics of AI, through publications, events, structures, and activities.
The current team at PAIR consists of 4 funded PhD students, 4 research fellows, 1 director of research, 1 professor, 1 secretary, as well as external PhD students and visiting fellows. We are planning to grow with additional funding and a perspective for permanent contracts. We offer a stimulating, supportive and pleasant research environment – situated at a lively and modern workplace in the centre of beautiful Erlangen. The working language at PAIR is English.
