Is Artificial Intelligence fundamentally different from previous technological advancements?

This lecture will examine the opportunities and threats of the impending AI revolution, asking if AI differs from past technology waves and exploring measures to ensure AI safety.

It will introduce 'Human-led AI', a paradigm which emphasises human control and supervision over AI, to mitigate potential hazards whilst also harnessing the power of this dynamic technology.

This lecture was recorded by Dr Marc Warner on 27 November 2023 at Barnard's Inn Hall, London.
