Artificial Intelligence
Artificial intelligence (AI) is everywhere; large companies are pouring trillions of dollars into it. Organizations are rapidly integrating AI into their business models to stay competitive during this technological revolution. But where is AI leading us? Who will regulate this growing industry? How will communities, industries and workers be affected by this? And most importantly, how will our safety and privacy be affected?
Join our panel of experts for a discussion about the ethical issues embedded within this new wave of technology. Our speakers will explore critical topics such as intellectual property protection, consumer safety, managing bias, workplace changes, national security and what it means to be human. We'll also speculate on the future of AI, pondering how today's ethical decisions will shape our technological landscape for generations to come.
This event is free and open to the public, but registration is required.
