Balancing AI risks and opportunities

A fireside chat on AI safety, ethics and opportunities with Risto Uuk and Natalie Cernecka.


Is AI, artificial intelligence, a goldmine full of opportunities, or a minefield, filled with huge risks? What moral concerns should we be aware of when it comes to using AI - whether as individuals, firms, or policy makers?
