Program Description

Event Details

Join Dr. Scott Samuelson  from Iowa State University for a presentation on the big moral and political issues surrounding artificial intelligence. What exactly is AI? Can it make our lives and our communities better, or is it going to take all our jobs and kill us off? Can AI respect privacy, or is privacy a thing of the past? Who is responsible when AI screws up? Can AI be moral? What does the future of humanity hold as we move through this technological revolution? Neither pro-AI nor anti-AI, this presentation is intended to get people thinking more deeply about the central issues raised by the new technology and how they might relate to it in their own lives. This program was made possible with the generous support of Humanities Iowa and the State Historical Society, Inc. 
Registration is appreciated for this free program.
