Join us on November 4 for a public forum reviewing the major tech policy developments of the past legislative session.

Assemblymember Bauer-Kahan and an expert panel of civil society leaders will discuss landmark efforts addressing artificial intelligence transparency, consumer data privacy, algorithmic accountability, and online safety. Speakers will examine how recent state legislation protects individuals, holds tech platforms accountable, and establishes ethical standards for emerging technologies.
