Algorithms and AI Therapists: Protecting Community Mental Health in the Digital Age | How Safe Are You When AI is in the Room? Privacy and Personal Safety in the Age of AI Agents
With Iza Calzado and Steph Naval | Mini masterclass by Gemma Mendoza, Rappler’s Head of Strategic Programs
Participants who choose this get two sessions in one. The first is a panel discussion with mental health advocate Iza Calzado and Empath CEO Steph Naval on what families and communities can do to protect mental health, connectedness, and well-being amid proposals to ban kids from social media and the use of chat bots for mental health and companionship. This is followed by a mini masterclass by Rappler’s Gemma Mendoza, “How Safe Are You When AI is in the Room?”, about how to safeguard your privacy and personal security amid the proliferation of AI agents.
Talking to Machines: What a Newsroom Taught Me About Vibe Coding
By Don Kevin Hapal, Chief Data Officer
This session shares the most surprising lessons from working with AI and a skeptical, deadline-driven newsroom. The highlight of this lesson is a live, collaborative build, where participants direct an AI to create a working tool from scratch — deciding what to make, and troubleshooting it in real time. The goal is to understand what vibe coding really means for companies and organizations.
