Come join us for these online workshops next week! What if AI futures were not something delivered to us, but something we could deliberate, contest, and build together? What if diverse publics could gather to imagine technological futures grounded in real societal and ecological needs?

Honoured to have been invited to speak at this. AI is not the root cause of gendered harms, it is merely the latest force multiplier of the bigger societal problem of misogyny and violence against women and girls. We need to tackle that or we'll repeat the conversation with each new technology.

Yesterday in Westminster we held the first evidence session for our new project on AI equity. Thanks to our speakers, attendees, and members, Sadik Al-Hassan MP, and Baroness Delyth Morgan for your contributions. We'll be publishing a short report this summer. www.linkedin.com/posts/appg-o...
