Artificial intelligence and digitization are among the most important parameters for a good life in the future. This field is therefore one of the focal points of the work at difgl – Deutsches Institut für Gutes Leben (German Institute for a Good Life). Our current projects and activities reflect our commitment to making the implementation of AI trustworthy and transparent:
SPLEE – Platform for Essays and Discourses
Last year, together with the Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF, we launched the project “SPLEE – Streaming Platform for Longreads and Essays from Europe”, funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research. Our aim is to make European discourses accessible across borders to all citizens in their respective languages. With AI-supported translations and data visualization, we are facilitating access to essays from leading European media companies.
The project promotes democratic exchange and strengthens understanding of European perspectives. Our interactive website will be launched soon.
KIDD – Artificial Intelligence Serving Diversity
In the research project “KIDD – Artificial Intelligence Serving Diversity”, funded by the Federal Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs under the umbrella of the New Quality of Work Initiative (INQA), we have worked with our partners to develop quality criteria, training courses, the KIDD process and a self-audit for the diversity-sensitive implementation of AI systems. The project has been completed for several months, and we regularly incorporate our knowledge into our consulting services and workshops for companies and institutions.
Upcoming AI Events:
On March 11, 2025, difgl Managing Director Katja Anclam, together with Annette Gräfin von Wedel for female.vision, will be invited as an AI expert to the ver.di specialist conference “Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence in Retail” in Berlin. There, they will be running an interactive workshop on the fair and equitable use of AI. The conference will present practical ways in which retail employees can systematically participate in the introduction of AI and how interest groups can optimally exploit their rights to information, participation and co-determination with regard to AI.
