About the initiative
AI Empowerment Observatory — created by Kedma Hamelberg
The AI Empowerment Observatory is a research initiative by Kedma Hamelberg, PhD, an applied AI researcher, builder and educator. It examines what reporting says about AI and human empowerment, with links to the underlying sources and visible limits to the evidence.
Which project answers which question?
AI Empowerment Observatory examines evidence about AI and human capability, creativity, autonomy, rights and control. The Brief explains AI news and research in accessible language with original source links. European Security Monitor studies European security narratives in public videos and government communications, alongside audience responses. All three were created and developed by Kedma Hamelberg, PhD. Their sources, methods and scope differ; a media sample does not measure public opinion or establish causal effects.
The Observatory and The Brief
The Observatory presents weekly evidence and its methodology. The Brief provides accessible AI news and research summaries with original source links. Both connect to Kedma Hamelberg’s official website, where you can explore her research, teaching and background.
