Activists disrupted an AI conference in London when a protester stood up and spoke out during one of the event sessions, saying, “We need a moratorium on data centres and we need to give everyday people a voice on AI.”
The action was carried out by the group Pull the Plug, which labels itself as a “movement to give ordinary people a say on how AI is implemented.”
About the AI conference
