Connecting Perspectives: A Human-Centered AI Conference
Overview
Join us for an evening where students, researchers, and professionals come together to shape the future of AI. Our goal is to empower you to move beyond being a passive user and become a co-creator of technology that works for humanity. Whether you’re passionate, curious, skeptical, or even concerned about AI’s impact, this event offers a space to explore important questions, share your insights, and discover your role in an evolving technological landscape.
Our vision is to spark a shift in AI development - one that puts human values like trust, fairness, and creativity at the forefront. Through open dialogue and hands-on collaboration, we’ll challenge binary narratives and navigate tensions such as efficiency versus creativity. Expect to leave with actionable ideas, new connections, and concrete steps - whether through forming working groups or launching projects - that empower you to contribute to ethical, people-centered AI solutions.

Note: Registration will end 3 days before the event, so sign up early :)
