ALUMNI SPEAKER SERIES “Don’t Look Up! Understanding Difficult Technological Truths"

Thursday, October 20, 2022 1:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)

Cars coming towards the viewer on a wide street in twilight.

Artificial intelligence will take your job! Genetic engineering will accelerate the loss of biodiversity! The modern smart-city is a privacy disaster! Killer robots and technological progress are out of control! Is the techno-apocalypse upon us? Should we run for the exit? Or are there more nuanced ways to understand the complex interaction between technology and society and values?

Join Scott Campbell, Paul Heidebrecht, and Cameron Shelley online for a discussion of current social issues relating to technology and technological change.
