Democratizing AI argues that AI deployment is a political act requiring democratic control. Zimmermann offers a practical playbook for reclaiming public power from tech elites and shaping AI’s future through civic participation, regulation, and justice. -- .
Democratizing AI offers a powerful rethinking of how artificial intelligence should be governed. Challenging the dominance of tech elites in shaping AI’s future, Zimmermann argues that AI deployment is a political act—one that must be subject to democratic control. She proposes a practical “playbook” for reclaiming agenda-setting power through civic participation, public ownership, and institutional reform. Engaging with leading critics, Zimmermann defends a risk-sensitive proceduralist approach while acknowledging the deeper structural challenges posed by capitalism, inequality, and democratic fatigue. This book is a call to action: to resist learned helplessness, confront techno-authoritarianism, and shape AI’s trajectory in line with democratic values. Thoughtful, urgent, and visionary, the book is essential reading for anyone concerned with the future of technology and democracy. -- .

Annette Zimmermann is an Assistant Professor of Philosophy and an Affiliate Professor of Statistics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and co-leads UW-Madison’s Uncertainty & AI research group. -- .
