Conversations on AI: Can Bristol Shape AI for Good?

An interactive panel on who decides what AI does to people, communities and work, and whether Bristol's own habits give the city a distinctive voice in that argument. Part of Brazen's Community Track.

AI ethicist Annabel Gillard, founder of LSE FORGOOD and the Conversations on AI podcast, hosts. On the panel: Su Crighton, Partner at KPMG, on turning AI investment into measurable outcomes; James Hobbs, CTO of Aer Studios, on digital sustainability and responsible AI; Emmy-nominated documentary producer Vicky Matthews on AI in factual production; and Lisa Minogue-White of Immersive. The format pulls the audience in rather than keeping them in rows. 17:30 to 19:30 at KPMG's Queen Square office. Tickets zero to twenty pounds, pay what you can.

Why go: it is the one Brazen room with a KPMG partner, a CTO and a film-maker arguing about AI ethics at the same table, and no technical background is needed. Best for anyone whose work is about to be reshaped by AI rather than built with it.
