Authoritarians on the Brink: China's AI Surveillance Infrastructure in Venezuela

PubKey hosts Bethany Allen, lead author of a new Australian Strategic Policy Institute report, for a public discussion of the technology underpinning Venezuela’s surveillance architecture. The research addresses the role Chinese companies and state-linked technology providers have played in its development.

The conversation examines high-tech and AI-enabled surveillance, as well as recent developments in AI cooperation between China and Venezuela. Allen will present the research and take questions from attendees, making this a useful event for people following AI governance, human rights and the international deployment of surveillance technology. The organizer lists the event as free and open to the public.
