Civic Hacknight #466: Building VoteInformer (VIRTUAL)

This is the virtual registration for this event.

Topic: Building VoteInformer: Empowering Civic Engagement & Shaping an Informed Electorate

We will talk a little bit about who we are as Baye Labs and what our aspirations for VoteInformer are. We will also run a quick demo and hope for feedback, no matter how harsh. We are in early stages.

Speaker:

Blair Ellis and Michael Traynor are the founders of Baye Labs. Michael specializes in artificial intelligence, and Blair’s background is in psychology and neuroscience and hearing healthcare. Both are scientifically minded, and focused on creating evidence-based learning systems that make complex information more accessible. They also aim to make the learning process fun and engaging for users.
