The Launch of Everytown's AI Lab

Everytown for Gun Safety has launched an AI lab to advance its advocacy for gun violence prevention. This initiative includes the introduction of an AI-powered chatbot known as Ask Everytown, which provides reliable information on gun violence statistics and policies. The chatbot is designed to engage users by answering questions such as identifying states with high rates of gun violence, and it emphasizes the correlation between weak gun laws and increased violence. This move signifies a shift in how advocacy groups can leverage technology to confront complex social issues.
