‘This article develops the concept of justice-centred artificial intelligence (AI) through Hannah Arendt’s thinking on the danger of a machine world replacing the real world and the freedom achieved in communities of equals. It explores how regulation might advance localised forms of justice concerning AI development and deployment reframing corporate accountability from transparency to enforceable duties. It focuses on energy systems and engages with European data law acquis, proposing three principles for justice-centred AI: a reversed categorical principle, fiduciary obligations grounded in the diligentia diligentis standard, and the right to have rights. It presents justice-centred AI as a constitutional project for the EU, aligning technology with rights, ecology, and political freedom.’
