Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. The two-week OxTalks freeze period starts on Monday 2nd March. During this time, there will be no facility to publish or edit events. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.

Peter will present on his forthcoming book “Genius Squared”, which critically examines trends in Artificial Intelligence (AI) – from driverless vehicles to smart products to remote surveillance. He’ll discuss:
* What do current trends in AI mean for the future of global sustainability?

o And/or will they turbo-charge consumerism and empower big business and militarized states at the expense of global citizens and the environment?
* What can we do to guide AI towards protecting, rather than destroying, the earth?
