The Ethics of AI | NHH Presentation

Join us at the library on Wednesday, November 19 at 7pm for a presentation and group discussion on the ethical challenges, questions, and significance of modern artificial intelligence, led by Dr. Kiki Berk of Southern New Hampshire University.

This program explores some of the most urgent moral challenges that Artificial Intelligence presents to society today. Topics include automation and job displacement, deepfakes and misinformation, the role of AI in education, implicit bias, autonomous systems (such as self-driving cars and drones), and the ethical implications of a potential technological singularity. After a brief introduction to applied ethics and the technology behind generative AI, we will examine each issue in turn, highlighting the core moral questions they raise and their significance for shaping sound policies and regulations. The session will conclude with an open discussion, giving attendees a chance to share perspectives and ask questions. Participants will come away with a clearer understanding of the ethical landscape of AI and the tools to think critically about its future impact.

This event is sponsored by New Hampshire Humanities.
