Who Owns the Algorithm? AI, Corporate Power & Human Rights
AI isn’t just a tool. It gatekeeps jobs, speech and surveillance - and is steered by a few hyperscaling, trillion-dollar firms. Yet it can empower dissidents and expose abuse.
Join technologists, researchers and rights advocates to probe power and the civic response:
- Can profit-driven AI align with rights?
- What if democracies run on proprietary code?
- Who sets the rules?
Featuring HRF’s Harrison Friedes and Norwegian voices. OIW 2025, Wed Oct 22, 16:30–18:30. Drinks after.
