Mar 27, 2023 | 1:20 PM - 2:15 PM

Description

AI chatbots has been front and centre in the news for past couple of months. They can quickly and cheaply produce well written essays, answer costumer support questions, and even pass exams. But AI chatbots can also incorrectly answer basic questions or generate hate speech and misinformation. This session will start with a keynote speech from Professor Ajay Agrawal on the implications of AI chatbots for job automation, work and productivity. To understand the policy implications and promote the adoption of trustworthy AI, Stephanie Ifayemi (Partnership on AI) will moderate a panel discussion with: • Emilija Stojmenova Duh (Minister of Digital Transformation, Slovenia); • Lucilla Sioli (Director for Artificial Intelligence and Digital Industry, European Commission); • Zoë Baird (Senior Counsellor to Secretary Gina Raimondo, U.S. Department of Commerce).
