The 21st century is the Age of Science and Technology. It is also the age in which humanity faces a unique and unprecedented challenge: Artificial Intelligence (AI). If properly developed and aligned with the values of humanity, AI will bring tremendous benefits to society. However, if AI is used inappropriately, it could undermine society. Automated Decision-making Systems (ADS) are already having serious negative effects, and ultimately the emergence of Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI) could lead to the extinction of humanity. Join us for presentations and World Cafe conversation about tough problems in technology & society, and give your input about the future of machine learning, data science and AI.
With Lise Getoor, UC Santa Cruz Professor of Computer Science. Hosted by Chris Benner, Institute for Social Transformation at UC Santa Cruz; and David Shaw, Right Livelihood College at UC Santa Cruz.
