Public gatherings

AI-Free Zones

Public gatherings where people come together to debate the future, organise and take action. Every month a new focus, in every city.

How it works

An AI-free zone is not a rejection of technology. It is a space where people deliberate face to face, without algorithms deciding what we hear or who gets heard, and leave with a shared decision about what to do next.

01

A public place

Free and open to all.

02

One idea

A short provocation on the future we want or refuse.

03

Open debate

Everyone can speak. Disagreement is welcome.

04

A decision

Every zone ends with something to do next.

October: The Rise of Technofascism

Technofascism is what happens when the owners of the most powerful technologies join forces with governments that no longer respect democracy. Surveillance, the algorithmic control of what we see and read, and automated decisions over work, welfare and borders become tools to discipline citizens and keep the few in power. It does not need tanks in the streets, because it runs through the systems we use every day. This month we ask how it is already taking shape, and what we can do to stop it.

Bring an AI-free zone to your city

We organise the first zones centrally and work with local hosts. We help with a speaker, a format and the materials.
