Volume 2, Number 1, July 2026 : Does AI (de)Humanise Society?
WaHIA Cover

If AI were a question, then this edition carries with it nuances that attempt at coming to some sort of answers. These not-quite-answers, indeed, stubbornly refuse to settle the matter comfortably. Instead, they reignite a rush of even more questions. The papers in this edition show, tell, or even dramatize, the idea, reality, or cultures surrounding AI. Of course, the very basis of these conversations, arguments, or illustrations, is a need to disambiguate “Artificial Intelligence”.
