Areas of Work
DeHumanize AI
Even though language follows rules and is quite analytical (if you break it down to its pieces), it is the core of human connection or it was until now. Chatbots (LLMs) can sound human, too because it learns said patterns in language that people naturally use to express meaning, emotion, and social connection. AI models detect and adapt how tone, word choice, rhythm, and conversational cues typically appear in real communication which makes it feel so realistic.
This allows them to generate responses that feel familiar and intuitive to users. It also makes Chatbots highly effective as a commercial product, because users build up human-like relationships with technology. This circumstance carries potential risks of manipulation. We demand that AI should be dehumanized. That means, that the language AI applies should maintain a formal, distant & objective communication style.
Identity and Persona Rights
As of 2025, the EU has implemented several key digital laws, including e.g. the Digital Services Act (DSA), Digital Markets Act (DMA), Data Act, Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), and Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which regulate online platforms, data access, AI systems, cybersecurity, and digital resilience. These laws protect users, ensure fairness, and promote transparency and safety in the digital environment.
However, there is no unified EU law explicitly granting individuals ownership or control over their image, voice, or likeness; protection in this area relies on national civil law and GDPR’s personal data provisions. Such a law is needed to address emerging challenges from AI, deepfakes, and synthetic media, ensuring individuals maintain control over their identity traits and preventing misuse. We work on according policies that fill this void to see citizens protected.
AI on political agendas
Artificial intelligence (AI) must be a priority on political agendas in Germany and the EU because it is rapidly transforming economies, societies, and public life. AI technologies influence critical areas such as healthcare, finance, public services, and digital infrastructure, while also raising urgent ethical, legal, and security challenges, including bias, privacy violations, and deepfake misuse.
Proactive regulation and policy-making are essential to ensure AI fosters innovation while protecting fundamental rights, maintaining public trust, and securing Europe’s strategic autonomy in global technology governance. By placing AI at the center of political debate, Germany and the EU can shape responsible development, harmonize rules across borders, and safeguard both citizens and businesses in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
AI Citizen Council
A Tech & AI Citizen Council in Germany should serve as a democratic platform where diverse citizens provide input on AI policies, ethical standards, and digital innovation strategies.
Comprising representatives from different regions, age groups, professions, and backgrounds, the council meets regularly to discuss emerging AI technologies, review policy proposals, and advise lawmakers on societal impacts and real life examples. This way citizens are represented and included in the AI conversation and have a platform to participate.
