Authorship, Agency, and Moral ObligationJoanna BrysonProfessor of Ethics and Technology in the Centre for Digital Governance at Hertie School in Berlin

How much of our individual human experience can we absorb into machine models when we use machine learning and a huge amount of data? Will AI become sentient? Sovereign? Ambitious? How will living with AI change our daily experience? This talk reflects natural, social, and computing sciences, describing both human and artificial intelligence, then governance, justice, and creativity. What we do matters, and we are obliged to ourselves and our planet to create and maintain good governance of all artefacts of our species.
