The Rutgers Center for Cognitive Science is pleased to announce the event, “Ethics and the Future of  AI.” With the rapid rise of AI, a host of new ethical issues present themselves: biases in algorithms, effects on the future of work, whether we will someday have conscious robots, just to name a few. 

 

Join a distinguished panel of authors, academics, and industry leaders to discuss these deeply important issues.  We will also be celebrating Rutgers alum, Susan Schneider, on the launch of her new book, Artificial You.

Panelists: David Pennock, Susan Schneider, Vivek Singh, Lindsey Zuloaga
