What's At Stake Voter Teach-In Slide Deck + Presenter Notes (Jobs, Rights, Freedom, & AI)

What’s at Stake: Teach-In Slide Deck

A Civic Presentation from Future in Common

Part of the series: “The United States of AI: An Ethical Policy Platform for American Workers”

What This Deck Covers:

This ready-to-use slide deck walks through how artificial intelligence (AI) is shaping everyday life—and why it’s time for the public to pay attention.

Designed for community teach-ins, civic classrooms, and voter engagement events, the deck breaks down complex issues in clear, accessible language—with a hopeful, action-ready tone.

Presenter notes accompany the What’s at Stake teach-in slide deck, offering plainspoken, approachable guidance to help you lead community conversations about artificial intelligence (AI), everyday life, and public action.

Whether you’re new to the topic or a seasoned facilitator, these notes help you stay grounded, clear, and people-first.

What’s Inside:

• 7 visually clean, easy-to-follow slides
• Presenter notes including a plain-language definition of AI
• Real-life examples in schools, jobs, healthcare, and housing
• A call to action for learning, sharing, and organizing
• Optional closing slide focused on collective hope and voice

Who It’s For:

• Civic educators and community presenters
• Nonprofit staff, faith leaders, and local organizers
• Teachers, students, and librarians
• Voters who want to help others understand what’s at stake

Why It Matters:

Too many of the decisions about AI are happening without the public in the room.

This presentation helps bring people in—and brings the conversation home.

It’s made for everyday messengers—not tech experts.
