Where are AI’s publics?

Noortje Marres, Bettina Nissen and Alison Powell will invite discussion on the public’s role in Artificial Intelligence (AI). Through prompts and engagements with a diverse audience, they’ll discuss tilting the balance away from those actors and agencies who usually wield the power. Opening a space for alternatives, they'll explore possibilities involving the public in the developments and uses of AI and how it is governed and regulated.
