Sustainable AI for Flourishing
SAIF is a transdisciplinary research project re-centering AI development around ecological integrity and human flourishing — rather than narrow self-interest and economic optimization. Building on the deep ecology of Arne Næss, we connect philosophy, futures, law, and informatics to make sustainability the foundational logic of AI lifecycles, not a constraint on them.
