Who should decide who gets to move across borders—algorithms or human experts?

In this episode of Beyond the Borders, we dive into one of the most urgent and complex debates in global mobility: the growing role of artificial intelligence in immigration decisions.

Governments are adopting AI to triage visa applications, detect fraud, and speed up processing times. But critics argue these tools often operate as black boxes—opaque, biased, and unaccountable.

We explore both sides of the argument—and introduce a third path forward: one where AI scales the system, but expert judgment stays at the center.

You’ll hear why the future of immigration depends on the systems we build now, the professionals we empower, and the principles we refuse to automate.
