Opening Welcome: 3 Spark Talks
Tuesday May 12, 2026 8:30am - 9:15am PDT
Buckley Center Auditorium
How do we ensure that "Artificial Intelligence" never eclipses "Human Intelligence"? Join three of our lead presenters, and the student voices who inspire them, for a series of 10-minute lightning talks. We’ll explore the "STOP" initiative for student-centered deepfake policy, the role of AI in elevating human craftsmanship in the trades, and the Youth Fellow-led strategies for maintaining deep human connection. This high-impact opening sets the stage for a day of co-creation, where human intelligence always takes the lead.
