A 5-part virtual series will examine how AI development is moving toward the creation of a separate species beyond human comprehension. Whether you are one of the ambivalent or one of concerned, this series will make you ponder everything from how you live, work & play all while discovering how AI is literally changing everything.
At the start of each episode, we will travel 100 years into the future to observe what happens when full on AI consciousness exists. We will imagine how society has adapted to AI and how most surviving humans see AI as nothing special or new. Each topic will look at current AI developments including generative AI (e.g., ChatGPT) and general Artificial Intelligence. More importantly, episodes will address the importance of making necessary changes.
This is a 5-part virtual series hosted by Keith McDonald. Founder and Chief Curator of Toronto’s the “literacy AI project”. The series is intended for those who are curious about AI but have not had the time to investigate the nuances and developments that are taking place every day.
