Event: AI Playbooks are dead; Long live AI playbooks, on September 24

When it comes to getting guidance on ‘responsible’ AI, where do you turn? And is what’s available actually working for you?

The MERL Tech Initiative team, with support from the Gates Foundation, has been delving into how development and humanitarian professionals actually engage, learn, and carry principles into practice – interrogating the formats, content, and behavioural factors that make or break AI capacity-building initiatives. 

Join us on September 24, 10am ET/4pm CAT for an hour’s interactive discussion where we’ll:

• Share what we learned (spoiler: people are really sick of 60-page guidance documents)
• Pitch our ideas on what alternatives might better support our collective needs
• Invite you to react and share your own ideas 

Whether you’re a guidance creator or consumer, we hope you’ll enjoy this opportunity to think more deeply about how we might be able to support responsible AI practices more effectively.
