Join DSL & Ratio Christi as we welcome Dr. Thacker to speak on the ethics of AI!
Join us on March 3rd at 7 PM in Bruner Hall Auditorium (Room 119), refreshments will be provided!
Movies about AI entertain us, even as AI is used in their production. From sci-fi thrillers to everyday life, AI is always there in background life – to Google search to Siri to Amazon Echo to medical diagnostics to e-commerce. And then, there are drones and self-driving cars, and the meta verse. In this talk, Jason Thacker will help us understand how digital technology shapes everything about our lives, including how we view God, ourselves, and the world around us.
For more information, contact President Seth Mechling 615-809-6467 or Director Michael Poore 931-239-8735.
