Session 100: "AI Literacy and Public AI are a Match"

This week Libraries in Response will be live from Brussels at the Computers, Privacy and Data Protection Conference, May 22-24, 2024


"CPDP-ai 2024: TO GOVERN OR TO BE GOVERNED, THAT IS THE QUESTION"ON"

"Ever more systems of artificial intelligence – with apparent inescapability – are being established in ever more parts of our lives, cultures, and societies. CPDP2024 puts accelerating complexity of AI at the centre stage, with the underlying question: Is AI governable?" - CPDP-ai 2024
Most privacy protection regimes depend on system controls and regulatory restraints. Necessary but inadequate if users are ill-prepared. Careless or clueless users can undermine the security of any system. Training and education are essential to protect data privacy and system security.
Will society accept only private enterprise based AI? Can there be a public sector provided AI infrastructure analogous to public roads, parks and libraries? Sounds like it might be desireable to have a public option. But also sounds challenging and complex.

Join us to explore this approach on Thursday!


Speakers:
, Affiliate, Berkman Klein Center – Harvard University, Project Director – ComSciCon
Public Policy Director, International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions


- "Just three Big Tech firms control two-thirds of the global market for cloud computing resources used to develop AI models. This centralization results in AI systems designed to serve corporate interests." - Brookings Institute March 4, 2024


If "public AI" becomes reality, government responsibility for trained and educated users increases even further. Public sector services come withan obligation to make extra effort to assure equitable affordable access.
Nathan and Stephen will help us examine the needs for AI literacy and how that fits into existing training structure and could support public policy to shape public AI.
