4:00pm-6:00pm Coleen McKenzie: AI Objectives Workshop
In the fast-accelerating landscape of artificial intelligence, LabWeek Field-Building explores the urgent topic of human-AI cooperation. Drawing from approaches from computer science, but also computer security, cryptography, neurotech, and biotech - we focus on the challenges to tackle in order to build systems that could potentially overcome global challenges, enhance planetary coherence, and expand our cosmic horizons. As artificial general intelligence timelines are shortening, the importance of thoughtful development cannot be overstated—humanity's future much likely depends on it.
This event explores the collaborative frameworks we may establish to guide AI developments in ways that are aligned, secure, ethical, and integrated into societal structures; how AI unlocks and accelerates progress in the other field LabWeek Field Building focuses on: neurotechnology, biotechnology, and extended reality; and addresses the pressing need for robust technological and governance capabilities that support human-AI collaboration.
