Artificial Intelligence: Humanity’s Next Great Adventure

A Christina Lee Brown Envirome Institute Theodore Sedgwick Distinguished Lecture Series Event

The Industrial Revolution marked a major turning point in history, and the internet has been just as transformative. But there are many who believe that artificial intelligence (AI) may have a more profound impact than either. In healthcare, for example, AI promises to make a difference on a scale not seen in our lifetime. But excitement in that industry as well as other industries and entities is tempered with uncertainty. How will AI affect work, privacy and intellectual property? How will it impact democracy and freedom? Above all, how will we certify truth?
