PLAN Webinar recording #1: "AI & Aphasia Opportunities(?)"

Hi folks,

Thanks to all of you who were able to tune in and catch our first webinar series, “AI & Aphasia,” live as it happened. We had some great guests and great questions from you all.

For those of you who weren’t able to join or who want to share it out with your networks, we’ll be publishing video recordings on our Youtube account. Make sure you’re subscribed to this newsletter so you get them as soon as they come out.

Here’s a long excerpt of webinar #1, on AI benefits and opportunities for people with aphasia, with guests Dr. John Pierce (Centre of Research Excellence in Aphasia Recovery and Rehabilitation, La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia) and TySonia Carr (Alliance for a Just Society; person with aphasia), and hosted by Lyssa Rome, MS, CCC-SLP and Gary Delgado.

Unfortunately we had some technical difficulties with the video recording, but Dr. Pierce generously allowed us to put his slides and audio together from his very informative and inspiring talk. AI has an incredible amount of potential to help people with aphasia! (It also has a lot of potential downsides — subscribe now for our next video, all about those.)

Thanks for watching and reading. Share with your people and let us know what you think.
