As Halloween approaches, Open Data Manchester, HER+Data MCR, PyData MCR and Rust Manchester invite you once again to our annual Data Horror Stories event on 30th October!
In today's world, algorithms predict our preferences, chatbots engage in surprisingly human-like conversations, and AI systems make crucial decisions affecting millions. But what happens when these technologies don't work as intended? Join us for an evening of real-world cautionary tales and data-driven insights
We're calling on data professionals, tech experts, anyone who's encountered tech troubles to share their most unsettling experiences. Has a coding error caused chaos in your organisation? Did a data breach leave you sleepless? Perhaps a digital campaign went horribly wrong? We want to hear about it.
- Have a story to tell? Email sam[at]opendatamanchester.org.uk to secure a speaking slot.
- Prefer to remain anonymous? Submit your story, and we may present it without revealing your identity.
- Feeling inspired on the night? We'll have quick-fire slots available for impromptu speakers. Just let us know when you arrive.
Join us for an evening of eye-opening stories, thoughtful discussion, and practical solutions to address the challenges posed.
