MediaJustice brings AI governance fight to Oakland with screening of ‘Ghost in the Machine’
MediaJustice hosted a screening of the documentary 'Ghost in the Machine' in Oakland as part of its efforts to engage communities in conversations about AI governance and accountability.
Why this matters: AI policy debates mostly happen in Washington or Silicon Valley boardrooms. Events like this one bring those conversations to communities that tend to feel the consequences first — over-policing, automated benefits decisions, biased hiring tools — while having the least access to the people making the rules. Local organizing around AI governance is not a soft counterpart to policy work. It is often where the clearest thinking about real harm actually lives.
