Is AI on your mind more these days? Please join us for this presentation, which focuses on the big moral and political issues surrounding artificial intelligence. What exactly is AI? Can it make our lives and our communities better, or is it going to take all our jobs and K*ll us off? Can AI respect privacy, or is privacy a thing of the past? Who is responsible when AI screws up? Can AI be moral? What does the future of humanity hold as we move through this technological revolution? Neither pro-AI nor anti-AI, this presentation is intended to get people thinking more deeply about the central issues raised by the new technology and how they might relate to it in their own lives.Scott Samuelson is the author of three books: Rome as a Guide to the Good Life (2023), Seven Ways of Looking at Pointless Suffering, (2018), and The Deepest Human Life: An Introduction to Philosophy for Everyone (2014). Among his many essays and articles, “Why I Teach Plato to Plumbers” in The Atlantic has been widely circulated. He holds a joint position at Iowa State University in Extension & Outreach and Philosophy & Religious Studies.
