📢 The EUI’s PhD applications are now open! If you’re a young scholar from Central, Eastern, or Southeastern Europe considering a PhD in Law, History, Political and Social Sciences, or Economics, this is a great opportunity to join a vibrant academic community in Florence.

I wrote a blogpost about the use of Generative #AI in #education and how it might adversly affect #democracy in three ways: cognitively, socially and politically. You can read it on the @icon-s.bsky.social Blog: www.iconnectblog.com/the-broader-... Looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Can’t emphasize enough how delighted I am that next year’s annual conference is at my doorstep 😌 It’s going to be great! PSA: if you’re planning to come book your accommodation ASAP. Trust me on this one.
