“Success in creating effective A.I. could be the biggest event in the history of our civilization," said the late #StephenHawking. 🤖 Elon Musk called A.I. “a fundamental risk to the existence of civilization.” Are we creating the instruments of our own destruction or exciting tools for our future survival? Once we teach a machine to learn on its own—as the #programmers behind AlphaGo have done, to wondrous results—where do we draw moral and computational lines? Leading specialists in A.I., #neuroscience, and #philosophy will tackle the very questions that may define the future of humanity! (Program tickets and details in the link in our bio)
