This seminar will address how artificial intelligence works and is being used today, as well as the advantages and drawbacks of future developments in the areas of machine learning, deep learning and generative AI. We will explore how AI as a tool is both a complement and a threat to human intelligence and will discuss the moral and ethical standards we can apply to determine its use. Attendance on Saturday only is possible.
