Is AI Making Us Stupid?

 – Discovery Stage

We use AI to help us with everything from making dinner to finding love. But what happens when we hand over judgement, decision making and critical thinking to algorithms? Will we forget how to do things for ourselves? Join leading AI experts for a provocative Hay Festival conversation. Jamie Bartlett, author of How to Talk to AI (and How Not to), journalist Aleks Krotoski, author of The Immortalists, tech journalist Madhumita Murgia, author of Code Dependent, and AI safety researcher Nate Soares, co-author of If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies, examine how AI is already reshaping our behaviour – and explore what it truly means to stay human in an age of artificial minds.

Price: £16.00
