About this Event

English follows.

En collaboration avec le Centre de recherche en droit, technologie et société, Connected Canadians et MediaSmarts le 26 février nous tiendrons un symposium d’une demi-journée qui portera sur l’IA et la littéracie numérique, les méprises, les conséquences, mais aussi les avantages et comment ces avancées changent rapidement notre façon de vivre, de travailler et de connecter. Il est plus que jamais important de prendre le temps de réfléchir sur l’impact de ses technologies sur les divers secteurs de notre société. Ce symposium offrira, nous l’espérons, un endroit propice à l’apprentissage, à la discussion, et à la réflexion qui permettra une conversation ouverte sur l’inclusion de celles-ci, l’éthique, et l’accessibilité. Nous espérons vous y voir en grand nombre !

Inscription en ligne disponible : https://shorturl.at/wlsOU

Cette présentation se déroulera en anglais, suivie d'une période de questions bilingue.


In collaboration with uOttawa’s Centre for Law, Technology and Society, Connected Canadians and MediaSmarts on February 26th we will hold a half-day seminar on Digital Literacy, particularly on Artificial Intelligence, its misconceptions and consequences. As AI continues to rapidly shape the way we live, work, and connect, it’s increasingly important to reflect on how these technologies impact the different sectors of our society. Framing it as a lifespan issue, this seminar will hopefully create a space for learning, discussion and thoughtful conversation around digital inclusion, ethics, and accessibility. We hope to see many of you there!

This presentation will be in English, with a bilingual question period after.
