AI & ML
Hosted by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT
A debate on whether the AI divide could become a bigger problem than the digital divide, and whose job it is to close it. It looks at access, identity, safety and inclusion, including the risks for people already digitally excluded and for those online who lack the skills or support to use AI safely.
Opened by Julia Adamson MBE of BCS and chaired by Rubi Kaur of the BCS Digital Divide Specialist Group. Panel: Amy Low (AbilityNet), Dr Lucy Caton (University of Greater Manchester), Melanie Calver (BCSWomen) and Tim Leech (WaveLength). Debate 12:05 to 13:00, then the group's AGM, then lunch and networking until 14:30.
Free and hybrid, with in-person places at BCS, 25 Copthall Avenue. Bring photo ID or your confirmation email to get past reception. Non-members welcome.
a serious inclusion debate with the charities working on the ground, not only technologists. Best for people working on digital inclusion, accessibility and public-sector AI.
