What if AI’s most powerful tools were in everyone’s hands, not just Big Tech’s?
Join us on May 20, 2025, from 15:00 to 16:00 CEST for an online event on the future of Public AI. We will present our upcoming white paper—commissioned by Bertelsmann Stiftung—that explores how to make state-of-the-art AI more accessible and accountable.
The white paper, authored by Felix Sieker, Alek Tarkowski, Cailean Osborne and Lea Gimpel, examines the requirements for AI systems as Public Digital Infrastructure. They analyze the AI stack, focusing on power concentrations and ways to make AI components more public.
While advanced AI systems remain largely under private company control, our research offers a promising alternative: Public AI systems built on transparent governance, public accountability, and fair access to core components.
The webinar will feature paper’s authors, Felix Sieker and Alek Tarkowski, in conversation with industry and policy experts including Renata Ávila (Open Knowledge Foundation), and Luca Cominassi and Albert Cañigueral (Barcelona Supercomputing Center).

This free online event offers essential insights for policymakers, digital activists, and anyone interested in the future of Public AI systems.
