What We Decided at the February 15 Meeting

🗳️ Can AI help us make better voting decisions?

With the municipal elections coming up, the AI Circle Stouffville community is launching a new project, and we want you to be part of it!

We are building a local Election Information Bot—a tool designed to help residents find factual information about candidates and platforms, strictly without bias.

Join us for our next monthly meetup where we will brainstorm how to build this responsibly. We’ll discuss how to prevent AI hallucinations, how to keep the data neutral, and how we can use AI tools to help us build the software itself.

✅ No coding experience needed. We need diverse perspectives on what makes a tool like this trustworthy for our town.

📅 Date: Sunday, February 15
🕒 Time: 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM
📍 Location: Stouffville Library, Meeting Room #87
🎟️ Free to attend.

From idea to live website with a single AI prompt. Our latest session was all about building. We created a full brand and a functional website for a local dog grooming business in one afternoon.
