DESCRIPTION:For centuries\, civil society's role has been to advocate for\
 , protect and advance the interests of the vulnerable. This responsibility
  is of particular importance during periods of deep societal transformatio
 n (industrial revolution\, armed conflict\, political unrest\, structural 
 economic adjustment). Today the rift between technological impacts on soci
 al\, moral and economic relationships and civil society's responsive capac
 ity calls into question whether each of those functions of advocacy\, prot
 ection and advancement can be effectively performed.\n\nThis seminar recap
 s the structural\, strategic\, and tactical challenges civil society faces
  in responding to AI-driven technology transformation. We then identify so
 me early successes in developing systemic responses and lays out a promisi
 ng path for co-creation of a technological future rooted in human interest
