What makes human intelligence unique, and how close is artificial intelligence to matching it? In this interactive masterclass, we’ll look at how AI systems learn and make decisions and compare them with the ways humans and other animals think and adapt.
We’ll also explore real-world examples of current AI technologies and discuss how they might shape our future - for better or for worse. You will have the chance to ask questions, challenge assumptions, and consider where they fit in a world shared by both natural and artificial minds.
This event is part of our Masterclasses series and is open to Years 12 and 13 students.
