Aimee van Wynsberghe to headline ITWeb Artificial Intelligence 2018

Aimee van Wynsberghe, assistant professor of ethics and technology at TU Delft and co-founder and president of the Foundation for Responsible Robotics, will be presenting a keynote address at ITWeb Artificial Intelligence 2018.

According to van Wynsberghe, the world has entered the robotics revolution, with robotics and AI being used for industry applications, as well as humanitarian relief and healthcare aid. And hand in hand with the benefits of new technologies, she says there are risks that society needs to recognise.

Her presentation will take a look at some of the ethical issues raised through the widespread use of AI and robotics in various sectors, and how putting human values at the core of AI systems calls for a mind-shift of researchers and developers.

ITWeb Artificial Intelligence 2018 will be held on 1 and 2 August at The Forum in Bryanston.
