Hacking4Humanity hackathon at Duquesne University, revived in 2022, aims to solve technological problems while emphasizing ethical perspectives, particularly surrounding AI.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Two Competition Tracks:<\/strong> This year&#8217;s event featured two competing tracks focusing on policymaking and developing technology like apps, targeting issues of AI injustice and ethical futures.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Proposed Statewide Policy:<\/strong> Nathan Reynolds from Duquesne proposed a policy to standardize AI use in K-12 schools across Pennsylvania, aiming to ensure equitable access and educational programs on AI for students and educators.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Universal Wage Replacement Act:<\/strong> The winning policymaking team, led by Duquesne students, pitched a labor-focused federal legislation proposing support for workers displaced by AI, trade wars, and climate change, suggesting a temporary wage assistance program.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Tech Tool for AI Credibility:<\/strong> Kris Rockwell from RMU won the tech track by proposing a tool to validate and credential AI-generated content, preventing the spread of low-quality AI-produced scientific research.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Future Plans:<\/strong> Organizers plan the future hackathons by focusing on several major technological issues each year, with preparations for 2027 starting in December.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pittsburgh students pitch bill to tackle
