  • People vs. Palantir Global Week of Action

    Date: September 30, 2026
    Time: 17:00 – 20:00

    Get organized, stop Palantir!

    This is an one-off public seminar within the People vs. Palantir Global Week of Action.

    The purpose of the seminar is twofold: to have a public conversation about democracy and digital surveillance rights; and to provide a space where people interested in these topics, and specifically in the context of Palantir, to meet each other.

    Palantir is one of the world’s most dangerous companies. It is a digital weapons manufacturer that builds AI-powered tools for mass surveillance, threatening humans and their rights globally. Denmark has contracted Palantir for police and intelligence services.

    There will be talks to learn more about Palantir and its many dangers; and opportunities to create new alliances among participants.

    Tentative programme:

    17:00 Arrival & welcome
    17:30-18:30 Seminar-style teach-in: talks/speeches & announcements
    18:30-20:00 Smaller groups – forging coalitions

    This event is organized by several groups.

    WE ARE STILL LOOKING FOR SOME MORE SPEAKERS – IF YOU WANT TO SPEAK AT THE EVENT, and for any other requests/questions/concerns, write to us asap! stoppalantirdk@proton.me

    Location: UCPH, CSS campus (Øster Farimagsgade 5A).

    Time: 14:00 – 17:00
    Location: Ungdommens Demokratihus, Slagtehusgade 10a, 1715 Copenhagen

    We gather, and invite everyone to gather with us, for the purpose of learning how to play Go — an almost 3.000 year old strategic board game, with infinite possibilities and reflecting the beauty of the human experience.

    This workshop takes place within an AI-free zone, hosted by Abolish AI! What this means? It means, amongst other things, that we purposefully declare this space free of AI. It means many other things – come and find out!

    Sign-up recommended to secure your spot at the Go board – but drop-ins and chronic time optimists comrades also welcome! (aka you can just come anytime within the 3 hours we will be playing.)

    Date: June 27, 2026
    Time: 14:00 – 18:00
    Location: Folkets Hus, Stengade 50, Copenhagen

  • AI Abolition Networking & Strategy Meetup

    Date: April 25, 2026
    Time: 13:00 – 18:00
    Location: IT University of Copenhagen, Kaj Munks Vej 11 (EHK building), Room 2F13

    There are many of us who object to the fascist logic of the machine, but we are fragmented and isolated. For this reason, we invite all AI critical and AI abolitionist groups/activists/individuals to come to a joint networking + strategy meeting in Copenhagen. Our aims for the meeting: get to know each other; establish a network; find points in common; and start the process of building something together. Our aims beyond the meeting: conscientiously objecting, rejecting, resisting and dismantling AI. If you are reading this message, you’re invited to come!

    There will be drinks, snacks, and humans.

    Co-organized by ITU Palestine Solidarity Network, Scientist Rebellion, Emancipatory Futures Lab, Extinction Rebellion, & more.

  • Screening of Ghost in the Machine

    Date: June 22, 2026
    Time: 18:15 – 20:45
    Location: Huset, Absalonsgade 26, Odense, Denmark

    Organized by Socialistisk Ungdomsfront (Odense) and Abolish AI! A screening of the documentary Ghost in the Machine (directed by Valerie Veatch) which explores the development of the various technologies branded under “artificial intelligence” and their intersection with power, eugenics and white supremacy.

  • Alternatives to AI: how to resist inevitability narratives in the workplace.

    Date: September 15, 2026
    Time: 16:30 – 18:00
    Location: University of Copenhagen, CSS Campus, Gammeltoftsgade 15, Aud 35.01.44

    Workers are increasingly required to use AI tools — often presented as “the only option” without any alternative; and no-one is informing us about our right to resist, object, and refuse. In many workplaces, expressing AI-critical sentiments has become a No-Go, leaving workers silenced and with even less options to build networks of solidarity. The question then becomes: how can workers that do not want to use AI in the workplace stand in solidarity with each other and organize?

    Join us for a topical panel discussion and joint strategy seeking. No sign up required.

    Organized by DM Palestina-Netværk in collaboration with Abolish AI!

  • AI ABOLITION network & strategy meeting nr 5 (MALMÖ!)

    AI ABOLITION network & strategy meeting nr 5 (MALMÖ!)

    Date: August 29, 2026
    Time: 14:00 – 19:00
    Location: Sevedsgatan 1B
    214 45 Malmö

    Many of us object to the logic of the machine, but we are fragmented and isolated. It’s time to come together.

    We invite everyone interested, or already working towards, AI abolition to our 5th monthly networking + strategy meeting.

    For the first, but not last time, we come to Malmö, to connect with those fighting the machine this side of the Öresund bridge. Newcomers welcome!

    Our aims for the meeting:
    – talk about what we’ve been up to so far;
    – get to know each other & strengthen our ties across Øresund;
    – coordinate AI resistance in the region (incl. by expanding our support of local data center protests);
    – work towards strategic consensus by answering the questions: What do we mean by AI? By its abolition? Can it be achieved under capitalism?

    Our aims beyond the meeting: conscientiously objecting, rejecting, resisting, and finally smashing AI.

    There will be drinks, snacks, stickers, and humans.

    If it is your first time attending, please sign up here to help us organize the event:
