AI and Ethics – From regulation to application

Event Details

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is by a long way no fiction of the future, but is already used in various industries. As with every emerging of new technology, essential questions need to be addressed in relation with AI. How can AI be reconciled with ethics? Do we need an AI ethics code? Which opportunities and risks are associated with the use of AI? Are there already successful use cases?

These questions and many more will be addressed during our next networking event on December 3rd 2020, which we host in collaboration with the City of Vienna, presenting an all stars line-up of keynote speakers and panelists.

On the panel Klemens Himpele (CIO of the City of Vienna), Elin Hauge (Co-Founder & Partner of Network Development Hub), Maximilain Kasy (Associate Professor, Department of Economics, Oxford University), Dr.David Kreil (IARAI Founding Director, Institute of Advanced Research in Artificial Intelligence) will be discussing a wide field of topics ranging from regulation to AI use cases. The panel discussion will be moderated by Jeannette Gorzala (Attorney at Law at Stadler Völkel Attorneys at Law).
