Event: AI and the Humanities

Panel of UO scholars considers the implications of AI

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is a field which combines computer science and robust datasets to enable problem solving. How does this powerful technology impact truth, trust and democracy; safety and security; and privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties?

The Oregon Humanities Center will present a panel of three UO humanities scholars with extensive expertise in the philosophy of AI, computation, digital humanities, information politics, and data ethics will engage, through perspectives rooted in the humanities, the challenges that AI and other data-driven technologies increasingly present today.
