Hello, The schedule is now LIVE for MozFest House: Amsterdam, a local extension of MozFest, the premiere gathering for activists in diverse global movements fighting for a more humane digital world. With over 50 sessions, art installations, hands-on workshops, and panels, you’ll discover topics from bad bots and ChatGPT to digital rights legal resources and kids programming. Here are a just a few of the incredible sessions we think you’ll love: - Democratise the development of Artificial Intelligence policies | A human-centered approach in the design of legal and regulatory frameworks is key to ensuring that AI systems respect human rights. In this workshop, you’ll be inspired and equipped with practical guidance and knowledge on designing inclusive policy co-creation processes.
- Generative AI: Hype Bbusting and Best Practices | Image and text generating tools such as Midjourney and ChatGPT affect advocacy and activism in a number of ways. In this workshop, collaboratively identify risks for how these tools affect our work and the rights of others and discuss best practices to navigate these tools ourselves.
- The World According to TikTok: Mapping Digital Boundaries and Algorithmic Proximities | TikTok is a popular platform that must operate within and adapt to different cultures and geopolitics. This workshop will present free tools, cross-national methodologies, and recent research investigating TikTok to make opaque platform decisions more transparent and hold them accountable.
