AIandYou In the News

This election year, there is a new potential factor that may have some voters on edge: artificial intelligence. The founder of Bay Area-based nonprofit AIandYou chats with NBC Bay Area about the issue.

As AI continues to evolve, political campaigns have started using the technology to spread information to the public and engage voters. AI-powered technologies can generate text messages, images, videos, and speech patterns to create campaign messaging and advertisements. The software is also used to generate campaign emails, posing potential benefits and risks for its use in political ads. Lawmakers at the federal and state levels have called for regulations around the new technology. In Wisconsin, the legislature passed a bill requiring agencies to include a disclosure for any video or audio communication purchased for a political ad with AI-generated content. Governor Tony Evers signed the proposal into law on Thursday.

The 2024 U.S. presidential election may look a lot like the 2020 vote, with the two major party nominations likely going to the same men, Joe Biden and Donald Trump. One big difference will be the use of artificial intelligence, which is playing a growing role in American politics.

AI literacy will be integral to preserving a fair and free election -- and every business has its role to play.

Will AI literacy soon become as important a subject to teach in schools as reading, writing and math? Many education leaders think so, as ChatGPT and other new generative AI tools sweep into daily life.

Susan Gonzales, founder and CEO of AIandYou, shares her journey and vision for bridging the AI literacy gap in marginalized communities. With a focus on AI's benefits, risks, and potential for societal impact, Gonzales emphasizes the importance of diverse voices in AI development and policy to prevent bias and ensure that AI’s potential benefits are actually equitable.

With less than a year until the presidential election, a wave of misinformation and disinformation is expected to flow at voters, with the help of artificial intelligence. AIandYou founder and CEO Susan Gonzales joins MarketWatch tech editor and San Francisco Bureau Chief Jeremy Owens, to discuss how to identify such information and protect yourself against it.

The event, hosted by nonprofit AIandYou, will feature Susan Gonzales, the organization’s founder and CEO, and special guest Rep. Ted Lieu, D-Torrance, in a discussion to help people develop a comprehensive understanding of AI and make well-informed choices.

New products, guides and accountability initiatives are flooding the inboxes of election authorities and participants in response to the wave of generative AI tools that have been released in 2023.
