Sweconpoddar 103 – Automisation and AI – and their influence on us

SweconPoddar

Automisation and AI – threats, salvations or both? How is society influenced by the advances in automisation and AI? Huge amounts of data are collected and analysed, searching for patterns in behaviour, computers are making decisions. What will the future bring us? Could AI be the solution to the climate problem? Or will the automisation lead us to doom? How can we understand the risks and opportunities, and how can we control the developments?

This panel was recorded at Swecon 2019 – Replicon in Västerås Sweden

Participants: Annalee Newitz, Charlie Jane Anders, Eva Holmqvist, Edmund Schluessel, Linn Liljemo (moderator)
