- **Event Description**: Join experts and people with lived experiences to discover how AI is being used to improve accessibility for all.About this EventAI-assistive technologies are reshaping how people with disabilities access information, navigate spaces and participate fully in education, work and society. But as such technologies become more widespread, important questions remain about who they serve, how they are designed, and whether they genuinely deliver inclusive access.This event brings together experts from technology, advocacy and lived experience to explore the promise – and the limits – of AI-assistive technologies. As AI opens new possibilities for personalised support, alternative modes of interaction, and wider participation in work, education, and culture, it also raises critical questions about bias, agency, privacy, and responsibility. Through informed discussion, the event will examine how AI can genuinely improve accessibility without reinforcing exclusion or shifting burdens onto individuals, and what it will take – technically, ethically, and institutionally – to ensure these tools are designed with, not just for, the people they are meant to support.Speakers:Introduced by: Professor Susan Downes, Professor of Ophthalmology, Nuffield Department of Clinical NeurosciencesModerated by: Ben Tillyer, Head of Digital Accessibility, University of OxfordAdditional informationOrganised in collaboration with the AI Competency Centre at the University of OxfordTea and coffee offered from 5.00pmMain discussion, 5.30–6.30pmDrinks reception for speakers and attendees, 6.30/6.45pm-7.15pmView full event details here.
