The Modern Horrors of Artificial Intelligence - BYTE Size Class

Move beyond the hype and into a critical examination of AI's societal impact!

Over three hours, we will analytically explore key areas of concern:

• The Erosion of Reality: The threat of deepfakes to personal privacy, security, and factual discourse.
• Algorithmic Manipulation: The use of AI in spreading disinformation and exploiting cognitive biases.
• Next-Generation Cybersecurity Threats: The new frontier of AI-powered phishing, hacking, and autonomous cyber warfare.
• Sustainability: The significant carbon footprint and resource consumption of large-scale AI model training.

This session is designed to inform and empower professionals, students, and concerned citizens. The discussion will conclude with a forward-looking segment on mitigation strategies, ethical frameworks, and regulatory responses.
