Registration is open for the Symposium on AI and Sign Language Interpreting April 20-21, 2024
Steph Kent
Hi all, hope many of you will find a way to join us. At least please share widely.
The #DeafSafeAI Symposium sequence of presentations and panels is designed to scaffold knowledge needed to "design justice" -- that is, to understand the issues, concerns, pros, cons, challenges, risks and so on for using artificial intelligence (AI) for interpreting.
Please share our social media #DeafSafeAI by RID, WASLI, and the SAFE AI Task Force!
The basic idea is that, over two days, the “end-user” the participants in the Symposium will generate a problem-solving dialogue, step-by-step, like climbing the rungs of a ladder.
First we build knowledge about the technology of AI, then
We think together at the social level to build collective intelligence about AIxAI.
The social aspect is the most important, because it is through communication that we can change structural injustice and improve quality of life for everyone.
Hi all,
Give us 1-2 weeks to get the website running. It will have registration information for in-person attendance (limited) and hybrid attendance (unlimited). CEUs will be available!
Please remember to use the hashtag #DeafSafeAI and share the announcement on Facebook and also on LinkedIn.
You can also forward this email :)best regards,steph on behalf of the Advisory Group on AI and Sign Language Interpreting
Mark your calendars for the #DeafSafeAI Symposium on AI and Sign Language Interpreting, a two-day event that will explore the opportunities and challenges of accountability, ethics and quality using artificial intelligence for sign language interpreting.
The hybrid symposium will take place on April 20-21, 2024 at Brown University (RI) and Zoom, from 9 am to 6 pm on Saturday and from 9 am to 2 pm on Sunday (Eastern). Whether you are a researcher, an interpreter, a Deaf or Hard-of-Hearing person, or simply interested in learning more about this emerging sociotechnical field, we invite you to join us for this unique and important event.
Save the date and stay tuned for more details on registration, program, and speakers. We look forward to seeing you at the #DeafSafeAI Symposium!
