About this Event
The panel will host several short talks followed by a critical discussion on the future of online surveillance in a virtual ecosystem that is increasingly marked by automated tracking and data collection. The role of machine learning in this contemporary process is quickly becoming a major concern, especially with regards to the possibility of GAI becoming ubiquitous to online monitoring.
What is the future of online sociality in a world increasingly regulated by surveillance machines? Would machine learning replace rigorous human verification and confirmation of security threats at the collective and individual levels? How will surveillance machines change people's behaviour on- maybe also offline? Is there an AI arms race between 'white' and 'black' hackers, who keep seeking more efficient forms of tracking threats or opportunities online? How will this standoff influence the kinds of data users produce or extract online? What is the impact of AI on the emergent field of OSINT (Open-Source Intelligence) and recent developments in DevSecOps (Development Security Operations) protocols? Will AI enhance or mitigate existing sociocultural biases that undergird these fields of practice as this relates to privacy issues, cybercrime, and information security at large? And what kinds of rationale, reasoning or other logical structures will be developed as a consequent of the wider use of AI machines?
Bringing together humanity scholars, scientists, and technologists, the workshop will provide divergent points of view on these questions as they are currently debated by researchers from different disciplines.
Although many of the King's Festival of Artificial Intelligence events are suitable for a wide audience, including the general public, participants will get the most out of this if they have a high knowledge or interest in the area.
