Dr Catriona Wallace Keynote Talks:
- AI and the Future of Humanity: With the release of Generative AI in November 2022, the world changed forever. Technology’s intelligence and consciousness is advancing at a rate faster than humanity’s and we must now ask the following questions:
– Is AI technology useful, harmful or both?
– Who is guiding technology and its relationship to humanity?
– Where are we headed?
– Are we okay to passively continue with AI development knowing that it poses an existential risk, on par with nuclear war and pandemics?
– And … given there are no real laws or regulations that govern AI – what can we do?
Furthermore, just as we are getting our heads around this powerful AI technology, we are faced with the imminent arrival of Extended Reality, Metaverse and Quantum technologies.In this important and highly topical keynote address, Dr Catriona Wallace will discuss: the current state of AI; humanity entering into the early stages of transhumanism; the power and invasiveness of AI and Metaverse worlds – the good and the bad; technology ethics and responsibility; and strategies for how we might direct technology for humanity’s good. - Checkmate Humanity – the how and why of Responsible AI: How to develop a responsible and ethical approach to Artificial Intelligence.
