Artificial intelligence and the future of work
Doomsday prophecies about the takeover of artificial intelligence are commonplace in the news. But is artificial intelligence as much of a threat as it’s made out to be?

In this talk, Kai Riemer will ask critical questions of the hyperbole surrounding claims of machine “intelligence” and discuss its impact on how we, as humans, work, and what we think about ourselves.
