Will AI & robotics learn from the mistakes of past tech introductions?

The introduction of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) is still the poster child for how not to introduce a technology effectively into society. This after dinner talk will outline the 6 key lessons from the past and explore some of the ways that other technologies, such as gene editing, AI and robotics can learn these lessons to more effectively earn the trust of society.

Hilary Sutcliffe, Director of SocietyInside
