A series of lively discussion events with the next generation of researchers. They will explore big themes impacting society today, from tackling the climate crisis to the future of robots and the mental health of children in the digital age.
As robotics technology advances, what are the social and cultural implications for a future shared with intelligent robots that can think for themselves?
Join us for this interactive event, where the next generation of robotics researchers from the University of Bristol will discuss questions such as: what do we expect from robots? What do they tell us about ourselves? What are the dangers and pitfalls in our current relationships with artificial intelligence? Can robots do social good or are they reinforcing negative stereotypes? And what does responsible robot design look like in the future?
Free wine, soft drinks and nibbles will be included with your ticket.
This event is being organised by the Bristol Digital Futures Institute in partnership with the Bristol Doctoral College at the University of Bristol as part of our Research Without Borders 2022 series.
