Cutting Through the Hype Cloud: The Deeper Questions We Need to Ask About AI

What are the promises and perils of AI? In this lunchtime panel discussion, BKC experts will tackle some of the thorniest, and often overlooked, questions in AI and tech policy. At a time when headlines focus on the latest AI hype, this conversation will dive deeper into the issues shaping the future that don’t always make the news. Wednesday, September 10, 12:20-1:20pm ET, in-person only, open to all Harvard ID card holders. Lunch will be provided.

Panelists:

Josh Joseph, BKC Chief AI Scientist

Alex Pascal, BKC Executive Director

Jordi Weinstock, BKC Senior Advisor

Jonathan Zittrain, BKC Co-Founder and Faculty Chair

Moderator: Meg Marco, Applied Social Media Lab Senior Director

Drop in to learn about a project that interests you, or stay for the whole 90 minutes. Wednesday, September 10, 1:30-3:00pm ET, in-person only, open to all Harvard ID card holders.
