This year’s conference organized by Civics of Technology happens online on July 31st, from 11-3pm EST and on August 1st, 2024 from 11-3pm.
Featured keynotes include Audrey Watters and Dr. Chris Gilliard.
The fourth annual conference theme is Communal Resistance to Artificial Systems. Our themes over prior years have been Visioning Just Futures (Year 1), Liberatory Tech Actions (Year 2), and Tech Imaginaries (Year 3). This year we’d like to turn toward the role of community and collective actions in retaining and centering the human in a world increasingly turning toward artificial systems.
In addition to our exciting keynotes, our conference will also feature:
- Community-building activities to promote collective resistance to artificial systems
- A day 1 closing panel led by Shana White from the Kapor Center
- A day 2 closing panel from the Civics of Technology board
- A book club conversation about Karen Hao’s new book: Empire of AI
- Plenty of additional sessions proposed by our community.
