AB  - Can artificial intelligence (AI) be a sustainable way to help solving the Covid-19 global
problem? What does the way how welfare states, charity organizations and labour
markets are dealing with the pandemic crisis tells us about the AI capacity for
reducing exposition of underprivileged groups to the desease? It is becoming more
and more visible how the new coronavirus pandemic is affecting specifically the most
deprived and vulnerable groups, and also the big difference that welfare states and
their policies make. What did the pandemic show about the relations between social
inequality, welfare state provision and AI? This presentation will discuss the role of
AI as a tool for public policies fighting inequalities that were amplified during the
Covid-19 crisis. It will be analysed how the welfare state, the labour market and social
communities are already incorporating AI tools and how this can eventually produce
more resilient paths. Accelareted and amplified by the Covid-19, several processes of
AI penetration in health, education, healthcare, social security, public
administrations, labour and surveillance of citizens, became a subject of public
discussion. Artificial intelligence is currently a process of long-term change in health
and biotechnologies, long-distance education, teleworking, automation, robotization,
consumption behaviours, surveillance and human enhancement. An in-deep analysis
of the Portuguese case will support the lessons that can be learnt from AI and its use
in public policies in a context of pandemic crisis, leading to a set of political
recommendations, to promote its application as a resilient tool to fight inequalities
