Intersection Thesis and Pathways for AI-Prosperity Alignment in the Global South: An Examination of AI for Good in Thailand
This thesis explores how AI for Good is conceived and pursued within the Global
South, specifically in the context of Thailand. The research introduces a novel framework of
three intersections where notions of the “South” and “Good” in AI converge: the traditional
intersection, where AI is viewed as a tool for national competitiveness; the hybrid intersection,
which adopts a human-centred approach to AI; and the transformative intersection, which
reimagines AI as a means of emancipation from the status quo. Through an in-depth analysis
of Thailand's AI landscape, governance mechanisms, and specific initiatives, the research
reveals the tensions between economic imperatives and social good in AI development and
deployment. The study proposes the concept of AI-Prosperity Alignment as a new evaluative
framework to examine the potential of AI in promoting holistic well-being, justice, and
resilience within ecological boundaries. Findings indicate that while Thailand exhibits
elements of all three intersections, it faces significant challenges in achieving a transformative
approach to AI due to limited multivocality and policy objectives primarily focused on
enhancing economic growth and national competitiveness. This research contributes to
bridging the gap between AI for the Global South and AI for Good discourses, offering insights
into the contextual factors shaping AI trajectories in developing nations and advocating for
more inclusive, emancipatory approaches to AI governance and implementation

Innovation Policy and Development in the ICT Paradigm: Regional and Theoretical Perspectives
Innovation policy forms a foundation, and probably the most important one, of economic development in any society, especially in today’s society driven by information and communication technologies (ICT). The Schumpeterian processes of creative destruction need stewardship – creative destruction management – and this paper aims to explore some key aspects of innovation policies from the perspective of the current ICT paradigm. The basic feature of the latter is the trend towards globalisation, towards facilitation of heterogeneity, diversity, and adaptability, which leads to market segmentation and niche proliferation as well as to production disaggregation and segment relocation. Analysis of innovation policies of the Central and Eastern European (CEE) countries shows that their current national innovation system based innovation policies are lacking several crucial features. First, one of the central arguments of creative-destruction management is paradigm-based, activity-specific priority-setting, but such wide-scale selection mechanisms have been and are still missing, and currently innovation policies by themselves can not lead to economic restructuring. Second, the whole concept of innovation systems has to a large extent focused on activities related to the production and use of codified scientific and technical knowledge leading to the situation where existing policies have essentially nothing to do with the average companies. Third, the current paradigm is characterised by globalised and open financial markets which, in case of the CEE countries, have enforced speculative economic growth, fuelled by domestic consumption and based on foreign borrowing. Finally, while the state is generally considered an important factor influencing how concrete innovation systems develop, linkages to policymaking itself and administrative capacities are quite missing and need to be revived, including the reconsideration of governance.innovation, economic development, innovation policy, ICT Paradigm, open innovation, governance, dissertations,
