This year, we're reviving the Symposium to meet the urgency and possibility of this moment. Growing numbers of people reject both "AI doomerism" and uncritical "AI hype" and instead seek an alternative tech agenda that empowers working-class people, enriches our communities, and enhances our collective well-being.

Join us on May 19 in New York City for a special event about how together we can demand a tech future that serves all of us.

The AI Now Institute's annual Symposium events bring together leading researchers, cultural figures, organizers, and organizations shaping the front lines of critical AI inquiry.
