Researchers & Society and Values (SV)
Diletta Huyskes is a Postdoctoral Researcher in the project “Towards a Decolonized Artificial Intelligence” at the Centre for Philosophy and Technology (PHILTECH) at the Department of Philosophy, University of Milan, Italy. She is also an Affiliated Researcher at the Data School, Utrecht University (NL).
Her interests range from the ethics of technologies to the relationship between social exclusion and processes of datafication or algorithmization, the governance of artificial intelligence and how different cultures can shape different artifacts. With a theoretical background rooted in hermeneutics, gender and technology studies, and social constructivism (STS), her doctoral research at the Department of Social and Political Sciences at the University of Milan, included empirical and ethnographic work between Italy and the Netherlands to investigate how automated decision-making processes (ADMs) are shaped by contingent and contextualized human behaviors, decisions and negotiations which can lead to negative impacts on society and social groups, such as amplified discrimination.
Previously, she worked as an Assistant Researcher in Data Ethicist at Fondazione Bruno Kessler (FBK) in Trento, Italy, where she followed a number of digital projects proposed by the local public administration with ethics by-design recommendations.
