Artificial intelligence is transforming almost every aspect of human life at a pace unprecedented in history — from medical diagnostics and information processing to fundamental ethical questions about autonomy, responsibility and the future of human decision-making.
Opportunities, limitations & responsibility.
Four evenings, four perspectives: What does AI mean for our society, our health and our everyday lives — and what infrastructure underpins it all?
