We are planning to hold the event around this same time, once a month. The last meeting was on February 24th.
The AI Working Group meeting focused on exploring AI’s potential in supporting individual Pirate Parties and Pirates. Discussions covered AI applications, including the creation of a Python server for information leverage, training models, and hosting. Google and OpenAI were highlighted for their robust features. Projects like Ollama AI Models https://ollama.com/ https://github.com/ollama/ollama were also discussed as a more Pirate friendly system.
We will work on creating tutorials, such as YouTube videos that can help out Pirate parties and individuals who are looking for privacy friendly AI tools as well as policy evaluations.
