DESCRIPTION:Artificial Intelligence\, or AI\, is currently in the news al
 most every day — chatbots like ChatGPT\, image generators like Dall-E\, 
 and a host of other tools are now available and being put to use in a va
 riety of ways.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nWhile these software algorithms can potent
 ially help us to work faster and smarter\, there are many issues to cons
 ider in whether and how to implement them. Details that must be addresse
 d include: What data is being used to train the language models? Who own
 s the source data and the outputs that are generated? How accurate are t
 he models? How much human oversight of the model-building process is the
 re? And what are the potential harms when things go wrong?&#13\;\n&#13\;
 \nThese algorithms are already being used to make decisions about people
 ’s lives\, like whether a person gets a job or a bank loan and how much 
 time a person convicted of a crime might spend in jail\, but students in
  particular are having their lives and actions analyzed more and more ev
 ery day. For instance\, proctoring software tries to determine whether s
 tudents are cheating on exams\, other software looks for plagiarism in s
 tudent essays and reports\, and there’s even software that analyzes emot
 ions and/or physical objects — Is the student happy or angry? Are they h
 olding a cellphone or a gun?&#13\;\n&#13\;\nThis month\, leaders from En
 code Justice Oregon — Maansi Singh\, Sahana Srinivasan\, and Julianne Hu
 ang — will join us to share their experiences and their work on drafting
  policy recommendations for use of AI in schools. They’ll speak about th
 eir concerns and how they think these technologies should be used in edu
 cational settings. They'll also discuss the upcoming Youth Citizens Asse
 mbly\, which will give students an opportunity to add their voices to th
 e digital privacy conversation and pitch their own ideas.&#13\;\n&#13\;\
 nCome join us\, and bring your questions and thoughts about AI in school
 s!&#13\;\n&#13\;\nPlease RSVP via the Meetup link or by sending an email
  to ta3mevents@pdxprivacy.org.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nSpeaker bios:&#13\
 ;\n&#13\;\nEncode Justice is a global coalition of youth activists fight
 ing for justice and accountability in the digital age. Oregon’s chapter\
 , Encode Justice Oregon\, works to educate their school\, local and stat
 ewide communities about algorithmic fairness while supporting legislatio
 n that encourages the safe and effective implementation of new technolog
 ies. From working with the Oregon DOJ's Consumer Privacy Task Force to e
 ngaging in connections with the Electronic Frontier Foundation\, Smart C
 ity PDX\, PDX Privacy\, and Rose Haven\, Encode Justice Oregon has estab
 lished a statewide presence centered around furthering the digital priva
 cy and equitable technology movement.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nMaansi Singh is a s
 enior at Jesuit High School in Portland\, Oregon. She is the Founder and
  Executive Director of the Encode Justice Oregon Chapter. Maansi has par
 ticipated in discussions surrounding the role of youth advocacy in AI et
 hics with organizations such as the United Nations\, Washington Post\, G
 oogle\, ACLU\, Meta and the World Economic Forum. Maansi believes that i
 ntellectual curiosity and the pursuit of new questions surrounding AI ar
 e ontological components of the ongoing discussion about human rights. T
 hrough Encode Justice and other efforts\, she has pursued the intersecti
 on between computer science\, ethics\, policy and education. &#13\;\n&#1
 3\;\nSahana Srinivasan is a sophomore at Jesuit High School. She is the 
 Director of Education for Encode Justice Oregon.  She is especially inte
 rested in the intersection of AI in medicine. AI ethics is important to 
 her because in the medical field\, it is critical that AI systems are bo
 th accurate\, reliable\, and without bias.&#13\;\n&#13\;\nJulianne Huang
  serves as the Co-Director of Research for Encode Justice’s Oregon Chapt
 er. Her position allows her to bring a youth voice into the AI Ethics co
 nversation and inspires her to continue being an advocate for people lik
 e her who have grown up in a tech-centered world. Outside of EJ\, she is
  a math and science enthusiast who enjoys participating in dance and cho
 ir.&#13\;\n&#13\;\n&#13\;\n&#13\;\nBy attending this TA3M meeting\, you
