The Big Campaign Lab AI 🤖 & Campaigning 📣 Hack Day👩💻
New AI technologies are already affecting elections worldwide. From deep fakes to automated individual targeting, how might AI shape what is possible in campaigning?
What tools might campaigners need ahead of the next election? What potential use cases are there for this technology? How can we guard against its potentially more problematic consequences?
As progressive technologists, we've seen how AI is starting to influence elections across the world, from Imran Khan campaigning from jail in Pakistan to Republican AI generated campaign ads in America, progressives need to get tooled up!
From deep fakes to deep learning, we’ll have a massive variety of challenges ready to be solved! Join us at the AI and Campaigning Hack Day, where we'll explore AI's potential to transform progressive campaigns!
Collaborate with experts, enthusiasts, and campaigners to explore what kind of tools and tech we can create using this technology. Whether you're a technologist interested in AI or a seasoned campaigner, this event offers a unique opportunity to learn and innovate.
