AI Yer Burn 2026: How Camp Leads & Community Are Working with AI for This Year’s Burn

​About the Event

​Burners are in the thick of burn-season planning, and AI has become the question sitting under half the work:

​Can this help us move faster without flattening the weird, human, handmade thing we came here to build?

​AI Yer Burn is a 90-minute ession for camp leads, co-leads, and community members who want a real room, not another AI hype panel.

​Camp leads will each give a tight 10-minute show-and-tell on what they are actually using this season: logistics, member onboarding, fundraising, comms, art, volunteer coordination, and the edge cases that only appear when you run a camp in 2026.

​Then we bring everyone into a facilitated Q&A: what worked, what failed, what felt off, where consent matters, and where people are drawing the line.

​Practical, candid examples from people doing the work.
