James Whittaker, Microsoft Rise of Machines: Our amazing, unnatural, subservient, and uncertain future with our robot overlords
June 13 at Noon
The Westin, 1900 5th Ave.
According to James Whittaker, we are the first human generation smart enough to build artificially intelligent machines and stupid enough to actually build them. In as little as a single generation from now, we will coexist with machines smarter than ourselves and live a life that is bereft of labor and responsibility. How will this technology evolve? What impact will it have on our social structures and economic institutions? Join Microsoft Distinguished Engineer James Whittaker as he takes us on an educational and inspiring romp through the near-term future using examples from everyday life as they edge closer to the science fiction world of tomorrow. Come ready to be challenged and most of all, brace for impact.
