The Techtonic Shift.\u00a0<\/strong>Paul Verhagen on AI, Power, and Democracy
17.45-18.15. De Salon\u00a0
<\/em>In this theatre lecture, Paul Verhagen<\/strong> (The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies) explores (in English) how the global AI race is fundamentally reshaping geopolitical power dynamics. Can a world increasingly dominated by AI remain democratic and liberal? And can Europe afford to stay technologically dependent on the United States and China? Verhagen examines the need to reform our societal institutions and presents insights from his new book,\u00a0The Techtonic Shift<\/em>.

Creatievelingen de pineut.\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>Wat AI met creatief werk doet\u00a0<\/em>
<\/em><\/strong>17.45-18.15. Het Chirurgisch Theater\u00a0<\/em>
<\/em><\/strong>In dit theatercollege (in het Nederlands) leggen experts van het Nationaal Wetenschapsagenda-project \u2018InDeep\u2019 uit waarom AI zoveel data nodig heeft, bijvoorbeeld om muziek te kunnen genereren. En ook waarom componisten, kunstenaars en schrijvers zo boos zijn dat hun werk zonder toestemming door AI-bedrijven gebruikt is, en waarom het technisch zo moeilijk is om te traceren wiens werk een rol heeft gespeeld in de AI-creaties.

<\/a>AI and the builders. <\/em><\/strong>Meet the builders of tomorrow’s AI: live interview and discussion\u00a0\u00a0
18.30-19.00. De Salon\u00a0
<\/em>In a live interview and panel discussion (in English) with\u00a0participants of the World AI Week Amsterdam, we ask what it takes to be successful in the new AI-dominated society. What skills do workers need to have? How can citizens remain safe and prosperous? Is still fun to work in AI, or is everyone stressed out because of the rapid progress and new perspectives on its downsides? What new shocks should we prepare for? Hear it from the builders that are building the next year\u2019s AI today.

Auteursrechten op de schop. <\/em><\/strong>Ontdek de toekomst van auteursrecht en AI.<\/em>
