Contemporary Challengesfor AI and Society:Disciplines in Dialogue

Padua - 24-26 March 2021

Presentation

AI is an essential part of people daily life in many different ways. This is no more a futuristic vision; it is the present-day of contemporary society. What has been dubbed the Fourth Revolution goes far beyond the mere technological capacity of algorithms. Open questions here go beyond the lines that confine individual areas of interventions. To approach these problems urges a more robust multidisciplinary approach. The success of AI society urges new ways of conceiving and operationalizing legal rules.

The AI Society Program is pleased to call for presentations at the upcoming  Conference on Contemporary Challenges for AI and Society: Disciplines in Dialogue. The event will be held entirely online on March 24-26, 2021, always at 3.00 p.m. (Italian time) through the Zoom platform.
