What to Expect with Civil Rights and AI

Along with judicial successes like the 1954 Supreme Court ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, and the hard-won legislative victories of The Civil Rights Act of 1964, there is a new civil rights movement people must know. With the new age of AI, the question arises: will civil rights still hold for women, and people of color in digital space? Will the 14th amendment still hold, and will The Civil Rights Act of 1964 still protect people when their biometric faceprint, fingerprint and voiceprint is being sold to the highest bidder? For example: Do you know how to remove your data from being used without your consent? In this timely message, Olympia LePoint will give you profound insight on what you should expect with AI, and what you should fight for within digital civil rights, in the coming digital age.
