Programme details
In recent years, the emergence and rapid advancement of generative AI and large language models have taken the world by surprise. AI evolution is expected to significantly enhance productivity and drive scientific progress, allowing humanity to lead richer and more fulfilling lives. However, at the same time, concerns are growing over potential risks such as AI misuse leading to accidents, the militarization of AI, and even the possibility of AI running out of control.
This program aims to explore how humans and AI can coexist and move toward to "design future society for our lives." To delve into this critical question, we have invited three AI experts specializing in key areas such as autonomous AI agents, AI safety, and AI alignment to discuss the future of human-AI interaction.
