CounterCritical

Who shapes AI—and whose future does it serve?

CounterCritical examines how artificial intelligence reshapes power, public life and democratic control. Our essays bring critical theory into the debate on AI safety and governance.

Our Mission

AI safety is also a question of power. Who controls the models, data and infrastructure? Who sets their objectives? And how can the people affected challenge their use?

Drawing on critical theory and political analysis, CounterCritical studies how AI can entrench inequality and domination—and what democratic, transparent and accountable alternatives require.
