DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/Metagov/251/
 ">Civic AI</a>\nby Matt Stempeck (Civic Tech Field Guide) as part of Metag
 overnance Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nMatt Stempeck discusses Civic AI\n\nHow s
 pecifically are civic tech platforms introducing AI features to enhance de
 mocracy? Especially within participation platforms? And will these efforts
  be enough against a broader context of AI harms (supplanting human involv
 ement in things\, disrupting institutions\, and being used against democra
 tic actors)?\n\nFor the past nine years\, Matt has curated the Civic Tech 
 Field Guide (https://civictech.guide/)\, the world’s largest and most op
 en collection of democracy tech tools\, data\, and programs. Between caret
 aking the Civic Tech Graveyard of projects that are no longer with us\, an
 d collecting over 200 examples of civic AI (https://civictech.guide/ai/). 
 \n\nHe brings experience building civic tech at tech giants\, activist org
 anizations\, city government partnerships\, and media companies to keep an
  eye on what’s working\, and what really isn’t.\n
