AI CLUB: The Paradox of Progress, An Honest Look at AI Ethics With Tiziana D'Agostino

​The Paradox of Progress, An Honest Look at AI Ethics

​Join us for a candid conversation on the ethical complexities of artificial intelligence. As AI becomes more powerful—and more integrated into our lives—questions about how it should be used, who it impacts, and where the lines should be drawn are becoming increasingly urgent.

​This session will explore the paradox of progress: how we can build a future with AI that is both innovative and responsible. We’ll touch on ethical frameworks, unintended consequences, and the very human side of shaping technology that is anything but neutral.

​Whether you're designing AI tools, using them in your work, or just trying to make sense of the headlines, this session will help you think more critically—and compassionately—about where we go from here.

​What to Expect

• ​An exploration of the ethical paradox at the heart of AI progress
