Heartificial Intelligence x Build City Author Visit & Book Club
Artificial General Intelligence is on the horizon. Do you wonder how this transformative technology will influence our work, lifestyles, relationships & concept of humanity?
Join Build City for a deep dive into Heartificial Intelligence with author John C. Havens. John is Executive Director of The IEEE Global Initiative for Ethical Considerations in Artificial Intelligence and Autonomous Systems. He is an expert in AI ethics, sustainability, strategic program management & global collaboration as well as a thought leader & advocate for AI's positive societal impact.
Mr. Havens will share insights & recommendations regarding ethical & comprehensive AI development, drawing on more than a decade of experience & research. He will also treat us to tunes on his blues harmonica :) Connect with John on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnchavens/
We invite your presence as we explore the intersection of AI, ethics & humanity. Heartificial Intelligence takes us through the emerging possibilities of AI & how it could evolve. What does it mean to be a "person" & how might we expand our definition of personhood as the lines between humans & machines intersect & merge?
We believe these powerful questions are most effectively considered in community.
If you’re interested in the future of technology, its moral implications, & our world, come join us! Bring your questions, ideas & opinions. We will serve locally harvested tea.
Event flow:
6-6:15pm arrival & tea
