The conversation
What we'll discuss
Learning with AI
How AI tools are changing classrooms, homework and the way our children learn, and how to make sure they are an advantage, not a shortcut.
Closing the access gap
Making sure Black students have the devices, broadband, teachers and programs to build with AI, not just be shaped by it.
Jobs of tomorrow
Which careers AI will create and change, and the skills in science, technology, engineering, art and math that open those doors.
Fairness and policy
What leaders can do so AI systems treat our communities fairly, from bias in algorithms to protecting young people online.
