What are Volt's political goals? / Education for the Future

Artificial intelligence

We need to raise awareness of artificial intelligence, as many use it and few understand it. Artificial intelligence is about the automation of actions. The parameters of what artificial intelligence can achieve need to be defined in interaction with our citizens and with an ethical and moral debate about the future. Volt wants a pan-European approach to this particular issue - it should not be in the hands of individual countries, but a joint and open process. We want to create a European AI initiative that emphasizes the following:

  • A European ethical and judicial framework.

  • A European kompetence center.

  • An active handling of socioeconomic consequences through innovation on the job market and maybe universal basic income.

The 5+1 Challenges

Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.

Why 5 + 1 Challenges?

The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.

The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.
