Vancouver AI Meetup
Vancouver AI Meetup — July 2025
July's Vancouver AI Community Meetup turned to AI ethics and grassroots organizing at a moment when layoffs and backlash were both very much in the air.
The room's recurring theme held: community as the counterweight to AI anxiety. Rather than a single keynote, the conversation stayed close to what practitioners were actually seeing — where the ethics questions get hard, and where organizing locally still beats waiting for policy to catch up.
The gallery and recording below capture the discussion for anyone who missed it.
