However\, the thought experiment also determined imagining what AI-infused artefacts should be capable of\, suggesting that ethical decision-making becomes a data-driven enterprise rather than a human\, social\, or individualised practice. Maya Indira Ganesh tracks the language\, materiality\, and culture of epistemic tools that establish safety and automobility as problems to be solved by the driverless car\, examining outputs of AI systems versus what constitutes our social and technological presents and futures. \n\n\n\n\n Register Now URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/auto-correct-fantasies-failures-of-ai-ethics-in-the-driverless-car/ LOCATION:UCLA Murphy Hall Room 3312 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Auto-Correct.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250908T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250908T173000 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250805T210254Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250805T210255Z UID:21181-1757347200-1757352600@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Principal Leadership Institute (PLI) Online Admissions Information Session DESCRIPTION:Register Now URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/principal-leadership-institute-pli-online-admissions-information-session-2/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Admissions-Information-Sessions-2.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250909T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250909T130000 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250823T204210Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250823T204359Z UID:21477-1757412000-1757422800@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Workshop: AI\, Time & Futurity DESCRIPTION:Join the UCLA Department of Information Studies for a free workshop on AI\, Time & Futurity with Dr. Maya Indira Ganesh (Leverhulme CFI\, UK). \n\n\n\nTime haunts AI. An origin story in the summer of 1955 that has acquired the status of myth and fact; geopolitical races; the contradictions and entanglements of longtermist and accelerationist ideologies; law and regulation that fail to keep up; promised breakthroughs from the driverless car to superintelligence that fail to arrive\, or seem eternally just around the corner. Computational time is also infrastructural: the lag in software updates pushed to the cloud and then to fleets of driverless cars and mobile phones (Mattern\, 2017). Temporality works unevenly affording ‘just in time’ deliveries for the busy\, but at the cost of bio-social control of delivery workers and on-demand mobility service providers (Sharma\, 2014). \n\n\n\n​This workshop is interested in exploring the temporalities\, ideologies\, and materialities of AI at a moment of complex political reconfigurations. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n Register Now URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/workshop-ai-time-futurity/ LOCATION:Center for the Study of Women|Barbra Streisand Center\, 1500 Public Affairs Building\, Los Angeles\, California\, 90095 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Workshop-AI-Time-Futurity-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250911T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250912T235959 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250703T215542Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250904T171306Z UID:20624-1757548800-1757721599@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:15th International Conference on Education and Justice DESCRIPTION:Connecting the Dots: Naming the Moment and Our Intervention \n\n\n\nLocally and globally\, the attacks on and dismantling of education\, democratic institutions and civic participation\, and human rights and sovereignty\, particularly for historically marginalized populations\, are crystalizing for all to see. These attacks are highly coordinated\, well-funded\, and long entrenched in a range of intersecting ideologies and systems of imperialism and settler colonialism\, autocracy\, white supremacy\, dominionism\, heteropatriarchy\, neoliberalism\, militarism and carcerality\, ableism\, and more. Examples include policy “reforms” and public rhetoric that undermine any number of issues ranging from anti-genocide protest and truthful curriculum to DEI initiatives and LGBTQIA+ inclusion; from teacher professionalism and student civil-rights protections to democratic governance and equitable funding of educational institutions and initiatives; from humanizing learning and teaching at the classroom level\, to community capacity building at the school and district levels\, to a bold vision of education as movement building for justice at the levels of systems and values. What does it mean to advance justice through anti-oppressive education and collective action in this moment? \n\n\n\nThe 15th International Conference on Education and Justice highlights the role of educational scholars in anti-oppressive movement building\, particularly when we produce scholarship collectively and leverage it for public pedagogy. \n\n\n\nSessions will feature projects and works-in-progress that aim to raise public awareness or influence educational policy and practice\, as well as strategies to build our capacity for such interventions. Educators\, scholars\, students\, leaders\, advocates\, and educational organizations and institutions from across the United States and around the world will convene to share collective scholarship for public pedagogy\, as well as to support one another in such work through critical self-reflection and constructive criticism. \n\n\n\nThe 15th Conference returns to California\, and will be held jointly with open meetings of CARE-ED and EDJE so that conference attendees can attend and benefit from these meetings\, and vice versa. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n More Information URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/15th-international-conference-on-education-and-justice/ LOCATION:Moore Hall\, 457 Portola Plaza\, Los Angeles\, California\, 90024 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/International-Conference-on-Educational-Justice-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250911T170000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250911T180000 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250805T195231Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250805T195232Z UID:21151-1757610000-1757613600@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Master’s Degree in Library and Information Science (MLIS) Online Admissions Information Session DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Session URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/masters-degree-in-library-and-information-science-mlis-online-admissions-information-session-2/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Admissions-Information-Sessions-2.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250912T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250912T100000 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250802T011326Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250802T011355Z UID:21107-1757667600-1757671200@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Education M.A./Ph.D. Online Admissions Information Session DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Session URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/education-m-a-ph-d-online-admissions-information-session-2/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Admissions-Information-Sessions.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250912T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250912T130000 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250802T013629Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250802T013631Z UID:21114-1757678400-1757682000@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Master’s Degree in Student Affairs Online Admissions Information Session DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Session URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/masters-degree-in-student-affairs-online-admissions-information-session-2/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Admissions-Information-Sessions.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250922T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20250922T235959 DTSTAMP:20260419T071255 CREATED:20250718T214044Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250718T214121Z UID:20802-1758499200-1758585599@seis.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Fall Quarter Begins DESCRIPTION: URL:https://seis.ucla.edu/event/fall-quarter-begins-2/ LOCATION:California ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/avif:https://seis.ucla.edu/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/Fall-Quarter.avif END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
