@communi_city @ManMetUni @opendatamcr @InakalumCEO @ManCityCouncil We were blown away by the support for our first ever conference event, AI for All! With speakers from @WeandAI, @Nexer_Digital & @Microsoft, we explored approaches to AI that prioritise human ideals, needs & participation.

First up in our Deepfakes Deepdive starting soon: a fascinating panel exploring what influences public perception, policy and economic dynamics related to #deepfakes. Tickets are on https://t.co/Z9ipJkYg74. Then onto some more presentations, interviews and an interactive game!

🚨New research from @jrf_uk and @WeandAI asks:

Why and how do non-profit and grassroots organisations in the UK engage with generative AI tools and broader AI debates?

We found a mixed picture - with lots to consider for funders + the sector as a whole.

Our @jrf_uk and @WeandAI report was just released!

It was fascinating to work on this and explore how and why grassroots and not-for-profit organisations engage with generative AI and the broader debate.

@catherinebuk For day 21 of #NewImageNovember, we are pleased to make available “AI silicon clouds collage". It's a reminder that the merging of cloud computing and AI services relies on physical materials despite the nebulous term. Thanks to @catherinebuk for photos! https://t.co/M6ZX1WD2cz

Day 4 of our daily image releases!

This image by @jemimah_knight depicts the data shadows we cast. It has a deliberately handmade feel, but as the licence is CC-4.0, it can be made to look more digital in any photo-editing tool.

There is so much to be learned from involving young people in conversations about AI. Or indeed enabling them to lead them! We need more events like these!

[Tanya Goodin @tanyagoodin]

Very eloquent Year 12s from St Olaves, Bath, talking about the threats from #deepfakes and #misinformation with @WeandAI at @CarefulTrouble AI and Society forum today - pointing out that children as young as 5 are seeing deep fakes on #tiktok every day #AIethics #onlinesafety
