Abstract

In an era where the technology we wield grants us unprecedented capabilities, it also forces us to confront profound questions about who we are and how we define our humanity. With experience working on, legislating, and litigating AI, MU alumnus Dr. Marc Canellas will lead us in a provocative discussion about AI, democracy, and our future.
