Bilkent Artificial Intelligence Society is proud to announce that it is a partner in this event, which will be held under the leadership of Dutch Universities.
This event will be held simultaneously at Bilkent University V2 Lecture Hall, online.
Live Q&A with OpenAI: AI and the Future of Humanity
The guests from OpenAI will be Jeff Wu, Rosie Campbell, and Daniel Kokotajlo (and perhaps Jacob Hilton will also join)
Are you curious about the astonishing potential of AI and the profound implications it holds for the future of humanity? Join us for a thought-provoking deep dive and exclusive Q&A with 3 OpenAI researchers on the topic of AI and existential risk!
With AI advancing faster than ever, how long do we have before it definitively surpasses our cognitive abilities? And how do we stay in control of systems smarter than ourselves? Experts are increasingly concerned that civilizational collapse and even extinction are not fringe possibilities. How do we steer away from disaster and safeguard humanity’s future?
Sign up and gain unique insights into navigating the rapidly evolving landscape of AI, and discover how you can actively shape its trajectory. Get ready to ask your questions to the very people building the future!
Program:
● 20:00-20:15 Doors open
● 20:15-20:40 Introduction to AI safety
● 20:40-21:00 Live talk from OpenAI researchers
● 21:00-22:00 Live audience Q&A with all OpenAI guests
