Synopsis

Artificial intelligence plays a role in all of our lives, and all indications suggest that role will continue to increase. As technologists, we have a responsibility to help prepare our children for a future with AI. The next generation need to understand both the opportunities and the risks that these technologies bring. They need to be able to engage in a society-wide debate about how these technologies are applied and where there should be oversight.

In this webinar, Dale will share his experiences in creating and enabling this sort of education. He’ll demo some of the AI projects that he has seen school children create, and discuss what he saw them learn from the experience.
