AI is reshaping how we work, connect, and make decisions—but trust in AI is lagging. As anxiety, burnout, and uncertainty rise across communities, the question isn't whether AI works, but whether it works for us.
This conference bridges technical excellence with human experience—exploring AI's impact on mental health, equity, and community resilience. Leave with actionable frameworks and networks to build AI that's accountable to diverse communities, not just optimized for them.
Human-Centered AI: Building Trust for Collective Well-Being convenes leaders from big tech, startups, academia, and the public sector to explore how trust gets built into AI systems—through ethical design, cultural representation, and transparent governance.
