Rialto VU, VU Griffioen and VU ART SCIENCE gallery join forces to present a program on artificial intelligence and its profound effects on society.
The program explores the impact of AI on our lives; from its role in shaping economies to its impact on personal identity and human relationships. Through the film Blade Runner, the theater lecture Science on Stage and an ART SCIENCE dialogue, participants will be immersed in stories that prompt reflection on the ethical dilemmas raised by AI. This will spark conversations about AI's role on our future.
