James Muldoon

I am a Research Fellow at the Oxford Internet Institute and Affiliated Fellow at Yale Law School.

My research examines how modern technologies such as artificial intelligence and digital platforms can create public value and serve the common good. It explores how notions of freedom, power and democracy need to be rethought in a digital age and what we can do to harness the positive potential of new technology.

I am author of Love Machines: How Artificial Intelligence is Transforming our Relationships (Faber, 2026) and the co-author of Feeding the Machine: The Hidden Human Labour Powering AI (Canongate, 2024).
