Sophia Arkinstall hosts AI & Society. AI & Society is a community-led platform exploring how artificial intelligence is shaping our cities, workplaces, institutions, and everyday lives.
We host thoughtful, inclusive events designed to move beyond hype and headlines — creating space for people to learn, question, and engage critically with AI and emerging technologies.
Our events bring together professionals, students, founders, policymakers, creatives, and curious minds to explore topics such as:
AI and the future of work
Human-centred and responsible AI
Technology, ethics, and society
Cities, sustainability, and digital infrastructure
Skills, literacy, and lifelong learning in an AI-enabled world
Formats include talks, panels, workshops, interactive discussions, and community meet-ups — from structured learning environments to informal pub sessions and run-and-coffee clubs.
AI & Society is grounded in the belief that AI is not just a technical issue — it’s a social one. The choices we make today will shape how technology serves people, communities, and the public good.
Whether you’re deeply technical or just starting to explore what AI means for you, you’re welcome here.
