The AI Safety Chapter
Helping students and communities understand how artificial intelligence is shaping law, rights, and everyday life — through webinars, hands-on workshops, and free talks right here in our own neighborhoods.
Making AI safety make sense
The AI Safety Chapter of Students for Society breaks down complex questions about artificial intelligence — from privacy and bias to regulation and safety — into ideas anyone can understand. We host webinars, run hands-on workshops, and bring these conversations into libraries, senior centers, and community spaces so the people affected by AI have a real say in how it’s governed.
Webinars & talks
Live online sessions that unpack current AI issues — scams, privacy, bias, and regulation — for a general audience.
Hands-on workshops
Interactive, in-person sessions where people test their own instincts about AI — not a lecture, but something you actually do.
Community events
Free presentations at libraries, senior centers, and community spaces, coming to neighborhoods near you.

AI Safety for Everyday Life — Issaquah Library
Our first in-person session was a success! A friendly, welcoming room of older adults and families joined us at the Issaquah Library to play the live Real or AI? game, watch a real voice-cloning demo, and take home our printed Family AI Safety Kit. Thanks to everyone who came out — here are a few moments from the day.
Webinar #1 — AI Safety for Everyday Life
Our first webinar walked through the newest wave of AI-powered scams — voice-cloned emergency calls, fake investment videos, phishing texts, and bogus computer-virus pop-ups — and the five simple habits that keep you safe. Practical and non-technical, built for anyone. The slides are below.
