Synthetic Truths: Election Edition
2024-06-13 , Room G - Garden House

The fabricated team is proud to propose a workshop session based on one of our new games, Synthetic Truths: Election Edition, an interactive board game about AI in political campaigns. This session is not just about gameplay, but also deep reflection, inviting participants to explore the intersection of digital literacy, AI, and elections.

In this workshop, we guide participants through gameplay in small groups, where they'll navigate the strategic use of AI within the electoral landscape. By participating in workshop, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the tradeoffs and implications of the (ir)responsible use of AI. We hope to spark insightful conversations about ethics and accountability in election campaigns. After the gameplay, participants will compare results, share insights, and foster collaborative learning and critical thinking about the responsible deployment of AI in the electoral process. Don't miss this chance to engage with AI literacy in a dynamic and thought-provoking setting!
