DESCRIPTION:The Gig Economy, Privacy, Automation and AI\n\nThe San Francisco Bay Area 
 is ground zero for the world tech transformation from platforms at Uber and 
 Lyft to social media networks like Facebook and search engines like Google. 
 The collection of big data without privacy rights, or the introduction of 
 automation by Tesla and AI without any real controls and regulations, is 
 not only injuring workers but also threatens public rights as our emotions 
 and every private move are captured for profit. The “gig” worker in our 
 automated economy is becoming the majority of workers in the United States 
 and every other developed country. The impact of algorithmic and 
 data-driven management of human workers is happening today at an mind 
 numbing speed, and this panel will look at these technologies and their 
 impact on workers and our society.\n\nInitial speakers:\n Todd Davies, 
 Symbolic System Program, Stanford; Center for the Study of Language and 
 Information\n Brian Dolber, California State University of San Marcos,
