ONLINE: Are intelligent machines making us dumber

Wednesday, June 28, 2023 12:00to13:00

The rise of Artificial Intelligence and generative language tools like ChatGPT have brought about remarkable advances across so many domains. But many have begun to question whether these technological developments risk sapping the human race of what makes us human: empathy, judgment, creativity and originality.

Join us at our next Made by McGill alumni webcast as we sit down with a pair of McGill professors and technology experts to explore the darker side of the AI revolution and discuss what measures we ought to be thinking about to contain the risks.

With:

Andrew Piper, Professor and William Dawson Scholar of Cultural Analytics, Department of Languages, Literatures and Cultures

Derek Ruths, Associate Professor, School of Computer Science

Moderated by Derek Cassoff, Managing Director, Communications, McGill University Advancement
