    From COVID-19 to rapid automation, we find ourselves adrift in an increasingly technology-driven world. In this Let’s Talk, we will connect with David Vivancos (Serial Entrepreneur; Author, Automate or Be Automated) to explore the role AI plays in helping us maintain our humanity in a digital world. We will talk about the nature of digital humans and how AI plays into our notions on mind-body problem and human augmentation. We will also discuss the use of AI in areas such as healthcare and labour, where the technology succeeds, and how we can overcome the existing limitations for how we blur the lines between our body, our data, and the impact our actions have on both.

    WHAT IS LET’S TALK?
    Let’s Talk is AI for Good’s series of live and interactive fireside chats focused on human-centric conversations around AI presented straight to social media.
