Challenging the Use of AI in Public Benefits Determinations: A CDT Report Release Event ([link removed])

State governments are increasingly relying on algorithms to determine whether, and to what extent, people qualify for public benefits. CDT is excited to present its new report, Challenging the Use of Algorithm-driven Decision-making in Benefits Determinations Affecting People with Disabilities, which analyzes the various litigation strategies for challenging AI used to cut public benefits.

Join us for a presentation of the report’s key findings, followed by a panel discussion with litigators and benefits recipients about how states’ increasing turn to automatic is affecting disabled people’s rights. The panel will discuss how advocates have challenged these harms inside the courtroom and through other advocacy strategies.

Presentation: Lydia X. Z. Brown, Policy Counsel on CDT’s Privacy & Data Project

Discussion Panel:

Tina Smith Nelson, Manager and Supervising Attorney with AARP Legal Counsel for the Elderly 

Kevin De Liban, Director of Advocacy at Legal Aid of Arkansas

Tammy Dobbs, disability justice self-advocate

Moderator: Ridhi Shetty, Policy Counsel on CDT’s Privacy & Data Project
