Is Artificial Intelligence an Asset or Liability in Anti Trafficking Work?

With the rise of all things AI, what effect is this having on trafficking and exploitation? To share more about this we invited Nancy Irizarry, Social Services Director for the Wisconsin Dept. of Health Services and Co-Chair for the Wisconsin Anti-Trafficking Consortium. Nancy provides an insightful analysis on what she believes are positives to AI utilization when it comes to identification and prevention of trafficking but also shares some of the chief ways it aids recruitment using deception and coercion for traffickers and abusers. She also shares about how crucial it is to bring survivors to the table and to be mindful about the unintended consequences ai can have on existing survivors' privacy and safety. If you'd like to have Nancy train your group on this topic - you can reach out to her via email: nancy.irizarry@dhs.wisconsin.gov
