Virtual Revolutions: Social Movements in the AI Era
In this episode of "Virtual Revolutions: Social Movements in the AI Era," we delve into how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing activism and raising critical concerns around tech surveillance. We explore the double-edged sword of technology in activism, from platforms that empower worldwide movements to tools that enable transnational repression (TNR). Experts in technology, ethics, and activism will discuss the pervasive use of tech surveillance in monitoring and sometimes stifling dissent across borders. We'll examine real-world examples where AI has been both a boon for mobilizing support and a tool for governments to conduct surveillance on activists. Join us as we navigate the complex landscape of digital advocacy, balancing the promise of AI in fostering global movements with the urgent need to protect civil liberties in an era of increasing digital oversight.
