Zoom to the Streets

Greetings!

I’m experimenting with how AI technology can become useful to mass demonstration organizers. On Thursday, a group of homeless organizers had a meeting on Zoom. Great meeting, complex conversations, even if they weren’t also preparing for a major gathering on Saturday afternoon in the town square. Zoom’s AI companion was turned on, and resulted in it providing a concise digital summary of what was said. That summary was then provided to ChatGPI, which was asked to create: 1) an article for the groups’ website, complete with researched internet linked articles on the topics discussed; 2) a song/speech playlist from YouTube related to the topics discussed to broadcast at Saturday’s public gathering; and 3) a digital file to provide to a banner-making company, including QR-codes to carry in the square on Saturday. The result is a very well-equipped group of activists on Saturday – all provided by an AI-enhanced meeting occurring on Thursday.
