Panelists will discover the moral implications of AI and Quantum computing from a number of views, together with:
How will the interplay between AI and Quantum Computing change the aptitude of both — and our lives?
Ought to these applied sciences be regulated, and if that’s the case, how?
How can we handle the financial and environmental implications of those applied sciences?
How can we navigate the political biases of AI engines?
How can we handle the tradeoffs between acceptable use and censorship?
The dialog might be natural, based mostly on contributions from the panel, board of advisors members and questions from the viewers. The occasion might be livestreamed and recorded for future viewing through the Manhattan Faculty YouTube channel.
