Encode Event Series - Decode AI

IS AI YOUR TOOL, YOUR RIVAL, OR YOUR BEST FRIEND?

Artificial Intelligence is no longer sci-fi—it is rewriting our laws, our environment, and the future of work. But are we ready for it?

Encode London invites students in Years 10–13 to the London AI Campus for The AI Decode Series. Over 8 interactive weeks, we move beyond the code to explore the explosive impact of AI on society. We will debate the big questions: Do we need to "re-write" democracy to survive AI? Will a robot actually take your job? Can an algorithm fix the climate crisis?

Whether you are a coder or just curious about how the world is changing, this series is for you.
