We Need To Talk About AI (Today)

Join the University Libraries and the Greenspun College of Urban Affairs for We Need To Talk About AI today at 2:30 p.m. on Tues., March 24 in Greenspun Hall Auditorium. This will be a candid, interdisciplinary conversation about how we can embrace AI’s possibilities while thoughtfully addressing its risks.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how we teach, learn, create, and govern – but at what cost, and under whose rules? This conversation will examine AI’s expanding role in higher education through the lenses of literacy and access, intellectual property and copyright, environmental impact, and the evolving ethical tensions that define this moment.
