Artificial Intelligence: Beyond the Hype & Headlines
Is Artificial Intelligence (AI) overhyped? That’s a question a panel of media and AI experts will tackle as they take on one of the most talked about topics in the tech industry today.
This informative conversation will touch on a wide-range of themes including:
AI’s impact on the future of work
The challenges with government regulation
The societal impact of robots – our emotional feelings for them and how that might impact future relationships, how culture affects our views of robots
Where AI is poised to make the most impact – from self-driving cars to advancements in medicine
As AI continues to emerge from science fiction to everyday life, this panel will try to make sense of a world that is rapidly becoming more automated, and a market projected to reach $70 billion by 2020.
