Artificial Intelligence is booming. New AI solutions are being openly released to the public and integrated into everyday computing systems across all sectors and settings, both with and without our consent. Concern about the impact of these novel technologies continues to play out in the public discourse and through legal and social challenges to the legitimacy of these systems.

This learning experience will empower participants with a stronger and clearer understanding of AI technologies and their implications and controversies. The program will develop new ways to discuss AI outside the constraints of existing—and often misleading—technological terms and narratives. Participants will explore expected and unexpected outcomes and interactions between the components of an AI system and wider societal systems. Using the presented tools, participants will further consider how to manage the technology across current and future deployment scenarios.

“Fantastic and valuable course, facilitated and delivered well by a great diverse team.” — SES leader from an extra-large public service agency
