We are now well inside the Age of Thinking Machines, and no one told us! The power of learning computers to mimic and impersonate human-generated information- and humans themselves- has reached a level nearly indistinguishable from reality. Can democracies harness the unprecedented opportunity of computers to adapt and perform complex multivariate problem solving while surviving an onslaught of misinformation created by learning machines controlled by “bad actors”? Join us for a brief discussion of the opportunities and challenges surrounding AI, and the policies necessary for its responsible adoption into democratic societies.
