Διοργάνωση-Επικοινωνία: Μαρία Παπαδοπούλου Περίληψη: Autochthony is usually taken as a political myth of democratic Athens since the 1980’s. This theory believes that the success of the ideology was due to the myth’s exclusion of women from the reproductive cycle: a straightforward reflection of the historical exclusion of the female from the male-only political sphere. However, this paper will argue that the myths of autochthony are not political myths of origin but are social myths of order. In the order of autochthony both men and women are assigned to clearly defined roles and this order, through its intimate relation to the divine world, justifies itself and thereby forms a powerful social discourse for Athenian society.

Her computer science curriculum had included 40% of the courses focusing on how to work with AI agents and tools. Ethics courses and discussions on automation's future were essential back then, as humans were still the guiding force behind every algorithm. But now, AI was everywhere, reshaping the landscape faster than ever imagined.
