The Ethics in Information Technology Public Lecture Series
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies have become central to numerous aspects of our lives, and are significantly reshaping them. These include our homes, our workplaces, industries in general, schools and academia, but also government, law enforcement and warfare. While AI technologies present many opportunities, they have also been shown to reinforce existing injustices, to threaten human rights, and to exacerbate the climate crisis. This begs the question: How can we collectively and meaningfully shape the digital society we live in, and who is to decide on the agenda?
This lecture series invites viewpoints from different relevant disciplines to explore how we can preserve and advance human values through the development and use of AI technologies. Key questions include: How does AI impact our fundamental social, political, and economic structures? What does it mean to lead a meaningful life in the AI age? What design and regulatory decisions should we make to ensure digital transformations are fair and sustainable?
To explore these and other related questions, this public lecture series invites distinguished researchers from philosophy, law and sociology to present and discuss their work. To get the latest updates and details how to attend the lectures, please visit http://uhh.de/inf-eit
