$The Salon Presents: AI \u2013 Death, Destiny and the Divine$

Professor of Ethics at the Fashion Institute of Technology, Lucy Collins, leads a spirited consideration of the rising AI technocracy.
About this Event

Is AI truly inevitable or is it something we can resist? Is it merely a tool or something much more suspicious? What does it mean when our world is structured around efficiency, ease, technological productivity, and profit?

Lucy Collins tackles these questions in her work as an ethics professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology. Join us for a conversation as we navigate some of the hidden value systems lurking beneath the rising technocracy. Fundamentally, these tech ideologies raise concerns around selfhood, human creativity, empathy and human embodiment.
