Join us for an interactive evening where art, dialogue, and hands-on learning come together to uncover AI’s impact on our environment and communities — and to imagine a more just and inclusive digital future here in Chicago and beyond. No tech background is needed; just bring your curiosity.
Why Join?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming our world, but the conversation about who benefits — and who bears the costs — must include all of us. This event is designed to spark awareness, deepen understanding, and foster dialogue so that our communities can play an active role in shaping a better digital future.
