EFFecting Change: Who the Machine Serves

Event Description

EFFecting Change: Who the Machine Serves
August 12, 2026 at 10:00 am Pacific

Nicole Ozer and Cory Doctorow in conversation on AI, tackling what needs to happen now to ensure AI actually works for everyone, not just those in power. The important thing about a technology isn’t just what it does: it’s who it does it for and who it does it to. AI can help or harm people, and EFF was created to make sure it helps. We are at a critical juncture to ensure that AI is developed and used in ways that respect fundamental rights and works for those who build it, use it, and are affected by it. Join the livestream online followed by live Q&A.
