Matthew da Mota is a post-doctoral fellow at CIGI’s Digital Policy Hub, where he researches the uses and governance of artificial intelligence and large language models within universities and public research institutions (including research libraries and archives). He will also explore the implications of these public institutions’ research policies in the private sector and in government. Matthew’s other research interests include the connections between history and imperialism, the creation and uses of historical narratives over time, the philosophy of history, propaganda, and the way that media and technologies shape the circulation and preservation of information. He recently obtained his Ph.D. from the University of Toronto’s comparative literature program.
