THE FUTURE IS HERE

Stanford Seminar – Artificial Intelligence: Current and Future Paradigms and Implications

EE380: Computer Systems Colloquium Seminar
Artificial Intelligence: Current and Future Paradigms and Implications
Speaker: Scott Phoenix, Vicarious

Artificial intelligence has advanced rapidly in the last five years. This talk intends to provide high-level answers to questions like:

What can the evolution of intelligence in the animal kingdom teach us about the evolution of AI?
How should people who are not AI researchers view the societal transformation that is now underway? What are some of the social, economic, and political implications of this technology as it exists now?
What will future AI systems likely be capable of, and what are the largest expected impacts of these systems?

The talk will be understandable for non-computer scientists.
