The current explosion of exciting commercial and open-source AI is likely to be followed, within a few years, by creepily superintelligent AI – which top researchers and experts fear could disempower or wipe out humanity. Scientist Max Tegmark describes an optimistic vision for how we can keep AI under control and ensure it’s working for us, not the other way around.
AWE Nite Chicago: The Next Evolution and Artificial Intelligence
AI is here to stay, having already become a part of our everyday lives. It’s the technology behind the personal assistants that help us manage our schedules, the algorithms that curate our social media feeds, and the recommendation engines that suggest movies or products tailored to our preferences. Whether we realize it or not, AI is influencing our decisions, streamlining tasks, and even augmenting our creativity. AI tools assist us at work, predicting financial outcomes, optimizing communication channels, and streamline the creative process for artists, writers, and designers. Its impact continues to grow as AI adoption accelerates across diverse fields, including healthcare, finance, transportation, and entertainment. Similarly, immersive technologies like virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) are transforming our everyday lives as well, across industries and experiences. AI has always been important to the development of immersive technology, behind capabilities such as image and voice recognition. Now, as AI and immersive technologies converge within the user experience, the possibilities are even more exciting. AI-driven content generation and personalization are taking immersive experiences to new heights, making them more engaging and relevant. These technologies are not only reshaping how we entertain ourselves but also how we learn, work, and interact with the world around us, promising a future where our realities are enriched and extended by the digital realm. Join us November 1st to learn about the exponential growth of artificial intelligence along with immersive technology’s impact on our lived experiences, from work, to play, to (ironically) human connection.

“Le Garçon et le Héron” de Myazaki, un festin de beauté !
Durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Mahito perd sa mère dans un incendie. Intervient alors un mystérieux héron cendré… On retrouve tout l’univers du maître japonais dans cette fresque luxuriante, débridée et délicate. Un graphisme superbe, une fantasmagorie étonnante qui mêle fantaisie et gravité. La clé du film ? Ne pas chercher à comprendre et se laisser emporter par cette beauté… Pour son ultime long métrage, c’est comme si le maître de l’animation japonaise, 82 ans, avait voulu invoquer tous ses fantômes en même temps, à commencer par ceux de sa propre enfance, entre une mère souvent hospitalisée (elle était tuberculeuse) et un père absorbé par son travail à la tête d’une usine d’armement, comme celui du jeune Mahito. Enfants et vieillards, liens familiaux, bestiaire fantastique aux pouvoirs ambigus, magie noire et blanche, préservés au cœur, immense et palpitant, d’un film-archive : rien ne meurt, tout se conserve et se transforme. À la place du testament attendu, Hayao Miyazaki nous communique un désir d’éternité.
