Does AI make you worry about Skynet becoming self-aware? Or HAL taking over the world?

Gustafson is chair of the Wisconsin Assembly Committee on Science, Technology and AI. Lukas is Adjunct Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Software Engineering at MSOE. Together they’ll discuss:

  • What is AI?
  • History and Development of AI.
  • How will AI change the workplace, society, etc.?
  • What are the electricity requirements for AI, and what issues does AI present for the electrical grid?
  • How can/should the legislature respond to AI?

Doors open at 6:00 p.m. and the program will start promptly at 6:30 p.m. The meeting is open to the public with no fee to register.
