Future of Being Human Unplugged

SEPTEMBER 28, 2023 Could advances in generative AI transform how we learn the extent that universities and colleges as we know them become a thing of the past? Join us for a live streamed conversation between Dr. Sean Leahy, Aleksandr Bogatirev, Sophia Herman, and host Professor Andrew Maynard

OCTOBER 24, 2023 Could AIs develop a sense of self and an inner world – and should this concern or excite us? Join us for a live streamed conversation between Mark Daley (University of Western Ontario), Blake Richards (McGill University), and host Andrew Maynard, as we explore the cutting edge of consciousness, artificial intelligence, and where current developments may be leading us.

This fall, the Future of Being Human initiative is launching a new series of crosscutting online conversations around what it might mean to be human in a technologically complex world.
