Show Information

Please note, unless otherwise stated, all of our performances are strictly over 18s only

Killer robots, superintelligence and mind control: these are some of the stories sci-fi tells us about future uses of artificial intelligence. But AI is already in your life and in your home today. So what should we be more worried about: killer robots, spying fridges or social media algorithms? Join Dr Mhairi Aitken to discuss the good, the bad and the in-between of AI and find out why she thinks killer robots won’t destroy us all but may force us to confront what it means to be human. https://www.turing.ac.uk/people/research-fellows/mhairi-aitken https://www.facebook.com/cabaretofdangerousideas/about/?ref=page_internal https://www.instagram.com/cabaretofdangerousideas/?hl=en @CODIfringe
