What about us? Humanity in the new-age of AI

Pre-congress conference speech

In my short presentation I would like to give the audience a few highlights of the Budapest conference.
It’ll include some preliminary results of young Hungarian scientists regarding the imitation of human communication and learning processes.
Unfavorable consequences will be mentioned, and from the rich treasury of human values one of the most important will be described: empathy.

Can't feel nothing - David Borenstein’s documentary film 

Workshop

Scrolling on your phone in bed: angry opinion pieces, cute animals, horrific images of war. Why does everything feel the same today? Why can’t I feel any emotions anymore? Director David Borenstein travels the world to find out why a sensation of numbness is so common.
