The third of Professor Jones‘ Gresham lectures as part of his series, AI as your overlord: assimilation, acceptance or resistance? took place on Tuesday, February 3 and can now be watched free online.
Entitled Will you be AI’s pet?, Matt asked whether advances in artificial intelligence were subtly turning us into passive ‘pets’: comfortable, cared for, but fundamentally stripped of autonomy. The talk explored both the comforts and hidden costs of living side-by-side with ever-smarter machines.
The IT Livery Company Professor of IT was established in 2015 and is sponsored by the WCIT and WCIT Charity.
