Presenter: Deidre Brocklehurst

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming how we live, work, and interact.

Join us for an engaging and accessible session that explores how BCIT is responding to the challenges and opportunities of privacy in the age of AI. Whether you’re a student, staff member, or simply curious about technology, this session will help you understand why privacy matters and what you can do to protect it—both at work and in your personal life.

What you’ll learn:

  • How AI impacts privacy through profiling, surveillance, and automated decision-making
  • The risks of data misuse, security breaches, and biased algorithms
  • Key privacy principles to help safeguard personal information
  • How privacy laws and regulations are evolving.

No technical background is required. You’ll leave with practical tips and a clearer understanding of how to stay safe and informed in a fast-changing digital world
