With the increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI), it is more important than ever to understand and address the opportunities and issues that AI pose to persons with disabilities.
Following a successful first workshop on the impact of AI in education and employment, we are pleased to present our second workshop which will focus on the use of AI in public and private services.
Examples of public services that affect persons with disabilities are social services, decisions on granting applications for disability or unemployment benefits. Examples of private services are the use of AI in healthcare, decisions on credit applications, decisions on health and life insurance and access to banks.
Experts will explain how you can get involved in the discussion on artificial intelligence. Together we will raise important considerations for your work when it comes to access to public and private services and how the use of AI affects persons with disabilities in these areas.
EDF members will have time to share experiences and ideas and ask questions. Others interested in the topic are also welcome.
We will also discuss the next steps – and how important this conversation is for the work on the European Union’s artificial intelligence Act.
The webinar is directed towards EDF members but anyone is welcome to join.
Live captioning in English and International Sign interpretation will be provided.
