AI Advancement Across Disciplines: A Seattle U Roundtable Conversation
The advent of Artificial Intelligence disrupts society at multiple points across every discipline. Disruptions across society also impact how we render meaning about our humanity by asking questions such as: What are the specific challenges we encounter, and what are the implications for our humanity going forward?
Interfaith Harmony Week is an excellent opportunity for centers and institutes across the university to host a lunch Roundtable Conversation that considers this theme across disciplines and our ‘big’ questions of meaning.
We welcome Ben Olsen, who advises locally to internationally on AI realities, ethics, and faith, to engage our community in conversation.
