AI and Civic Resilience: Weighing Opportunity and Risk in Public Service Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping how government, industry and society operate—bringing both new tools for strengthening civic life and new risk to jobs, democracy and public trust. Join the Partnership for Public Service at this engaging panel, moderated by Partnership President and CEO Max Stier as experts from government, advocacy and philanthropy examine how AI, machine learning and intelligent automation are already intersecting with public service. Where can these technologies help build civic resilience, where might they undermine it, and what must leaders do to ensure AI supports a just, democratic and resilient society? This session is part of the National Conference on Citizenship (NCoC) and will take place at the Planet Word Museum in Washington, DC. Panelists Solomon Abiola, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning Policy & Governance Director, State of Maryland Elizabeth Laird, Director of Equity in Civic Technology, Center for Democracy & Technology Gus Rossi, Director of Technology Policy, Omidyar Network Moderator: Max Stier, President and CEO, Partnership for Public Service Back to events
