Artificial intelligence (AI), algorithms, and related technologies are used extensively by governments, employers, landlords, educators, and others to make key decisions about the lives of low-income people, usually with devastating consequences. This session will explore the ways AI is determining how low-income people work, live, learn, and survive--implicating substantive issue areas of benefits, employment, housing, education, domestic violence, and child welfare--and introduce ways advocates can identify and oppose them.
Learning Objectives:
- Participants will learn to identify the various ways AI is used to make decisions about key aspects of low-income people’s lives.
- Participants will learn the primary obstacles to effective advocacy involving AI-related issues.
- Participants will learn the general legal claims applicable to AI-related issues.
