AI Revolution

From Machines to Morals

How do we act ethically in the age of Artificial Intelligence? With the revolution of machine learning comes the struggle to use it morally for the common good. To address these issues, the USU Communication Studies and Philosophy Department with the Center for Anticipatory Intelligence presents this year’s Tanner Series Lectures from the Dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences.

This conference series brings top scholars from philosophy, the humanities, and the sciences for an interdisciplinary discussion that focuses on machine learning, emerging technology, policy, and ethical dimensions of AI programs.
