<h2>About the event</h2>
<p class="intro">CoTech is bringing its network together for a day of honest conversation, genuine connection, and
some big questions about the technology we're all living with.</p>
<p>This year's theme is AI. Not the hype, not the sales pitch, but the real debate. Is ethical AI actually possible?
And what does it mean for the kind of human-centred, ecologically-sustainable work we do?</p>
<p>We're kicking things off with a panel of expert speakers, then opening the floor. The afternoon is yours:
unconference sessions shaped by the people in the room, lightning talks, and the kind of conversations that don't
happen at corporate conferences.</p>
<p>Come ready to think, disagree, and leave with something useful.</p>
