AI is advancing faster than it’s being thoughtfully designed, raising critical questions about who shapes it and who it truly serves. Based on a workshop co-led with the Innovators for Purpose community program in Cambridge, MA, this interactive session invites you to explore who holds power in AI development—and how educators, students, and community members can have a voice in designing AI that’s more inclusive, ethical, and aligned with societal needs. Through hands-on activities, discussion, and examples of student AI activism from Cambridge participants, you’ll leave with concrete individual and collective action steps—and resources to run this, connection-and-action-sparking workshop for students and adults in your own classroom or community. This session directly supports the MassCUE mission by modeling what it looks like to make learning both accessible and meaningful for all learners in the age of AI.
