Science Unwrapped: AI is an Astounding Innovation, but Can We Trust It?

Panel Discussion/Presentation

Science Unwrapped's Fall 2024 "Joining Forces" series continues Friday, Nov. 15, with data scientist John Lawson, who presents "A.I. is an Astounding Innovation, but Can We Trust It?" at 7 p.m. in the Eccles Science Learning Center on campus. All ages are welcome and admission is free. Hands-on learning activities and refreshments follow the talk. Artificial intelligence – AI – captures our imaginations with its rocketing innovation and surging accessibility. AI-generated text, video, images and voices seem like magic, yet can also be a wolf in sheep’s clothing with incorrect and misleading information. How do we harness this amazing tool, while curbing potential harm? Data scientist John Lawson, who uses AI to predict weather hazards, explores what it means, and the diverse skills, knowledge and precautions needed, to create trustworthy AI.
