This event is open to:
To commemorate Stanford Redwood City's fifth anniversary, we have invited Leticia Britos Cavagnaro, author of Experiments in Reflection, to share insights about her book. She will also reflect on what tools we need to create the future we want in a world that is being radically transformed by AI.
Topic of Discussion: Being Human in Times of AI: An Experiential Exploration
The availability of ChatGPT and similar tools that have the ability to interact in a way that is perceived as human marks a turning point in which artificial intelligence (AI) goes from being a theoretical concept or an algorithm running in the background, to a concrete element that shows up in our day-to-day, promising –or threatening?-- to radically transform how we work and live. In this workshop we will actively explore how to leverage AI tools to enhance our work and, together, reflect on what is –or should be– uniquely human.
What you need to bring: Cellphone, notebook, and pen
Footnote: Free copies of Experiments in Reflection will be available to registered attendees. Leticia will also be signing copies after the event.
