The R.H. Johnson Library’s lecture for the month of May, sponsored by the Friends of the Library, features speaker Matthew Goodwin discussing the topic “Staying Human in the Artificial Intelligence Revolution.”
This free to attend lecture takes place on Wednesday, May 28 at 2 p.m. inside the R.H. Johnson Lecture Hall, 19803 N. R.H. Johnson Blvd. No tickets are required and the event is open to all.
Matthew Goodwin, the featured speaker for this lecture, has a Ph.D. in Philosophy and has taught environmental ethics, media ethics, and technology and human values at Northern Arizona University, Coconino Community College, and Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University.
Matthew’s presentation will provide a general introduction to what AI currently can and cannot do, while also exploring some of the philosophical questions that AI raises. What are the ethical concerns about using AI? What about privacy concerns? What does AI mean for our jobs? Will we be threatened by a robot apocalypse? And what, ultimately, does it mean to be human in the age of AI?
