Description

Data-centric automation is at the core of many modern businesses and governments worldwide. It brings cost savings and benefits that not too long ago might have felt like a distant dream. Connecting to other talks in this series, we will think about the realities and consequences of this shift. 
How do Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML) and privacy combine, if at all? Can and should robots decide things about humans? Should we be worried about boundary conditions? Are we doomed to give up all our data, or are there privacy-friendly solutions to common data problems? 
We'll look for answers to these and other questions - all of which are increasingly raised not just in professional circles, but also in public discourse.
