SUMMARY:Demystifying AI: Critical Approaches to Engage with Technology
DESCRIPTION:The emergence of AI is another example of a technology which 
 disrupts and complicates our relationship with our work. Silicon Valley is 
 pushing for AI to take up more and more work\, and consume more and more 
 resources\, but who does this benefit? Technologies do not exist in a 
 vacuum\, they augment and perpetuate systems of power which privilege 
 certain people\, groups\, and ideas over others. We must be able to 
 actively choose how and when a technology can affect our lives\, and to do 
 so\, we must take critical approaches to appraise the benefits and 
 detriments of AI. \nParticipants will:\n\n\n	Explore the historical 
 examples of technological interventions in human work to contextualize the 
 development and implementation of artificial intelligence\n	Identify key 
 features and issues regarding the functionality of AI\n	Learn and apply 
 theoretical models to interpret the impact\, function\, and political 
 economy of AI and broader technologies\n	Create a set of personal AI morals 
 through reflective exercises and dialogue\n
