Human\ndevelopment has always happened via disruptions and radical changes, as triggered by\ngroundbreaking technical developments, natural disasters or even wars. Today, technical\ndevelopments open up unprecedented opportunities, but also risks. They challenge us as a\nsociety, question our view of humanity and our values and agreements. Knowledge transfer\nand knowledge dissemination must therefore be democratic and participatory as well as\ninterdisciplinary and transnational in order to meet the challenges we are facing as a society.\nAbove all, however, it also requires discourse on a broad societal level, because these\ndevelopments affect us all. Nothing less than ‘being human’ is at stake. But what does that\nmean in the age of AI?\nWelcome: \nSusanne Keppler-Schlesinger, Director of the Austrian Cultural Forum New York\nVeronica Kaup-Hasler, Vienna City Councilor for Science and Culture\n \nIntroduction: \nAnita Eichinger, Director Vienna City Library\n \nPanel:\nVeronica Kaup-Hasler, Vienna City Councilor for Science and Culture\nEdward Lee, Prof. of Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences, University of California, Berkeley\nChristine Marizzi, Director of Community Science, BioBus Inc.
