OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
The Institute for Ethics in AI and the Oxford Martin School are pleased to announce an exclusive afternoon event featuring in-depth panel sessions and a keynote address by distinguished economist Professor Daron Acemoğlu, who will be the Sanjaya Lall Visiting Professor during his stay in Oxford.
Keynote Title: Redesigning AI
Abstract: This talk will argue that the current path of AI is inimical to human flourishing. Nevertheless, different institutional arrangements, ethical underpinnings, and technological vision can lead to better AI. This better AI path will need to overcome the industry’s excessive focus on automation, the centralised control of information, challenges in the context of human-AI misalignment, and the disappearing diversity of information among human actors.
