How Not to Destroy the World with AI
All over the world from, San Diego
Cost: Free
The third annual lecture of the Institute for Practical Ethics at UC San DIego, featuring a presentation by Dr. Stuart Russell: Dr. Stuart Russell, professor of computer science at UC Berkeley, is a global expert in artificial intelligence. While some developments in AI are enormously positive, others, such as autonomous weapons and the replacement of humans in many real-world, decision-making scenarios, may be negative. Should this be a cause for concern, as Elon Musk, Stephen Hawking and others have suggested? Prof. Russell will argue that the problem is real, and the technical aspects are solvable, IF we replace current definitions of AI with a version based on real benefit to humans.
