⚠️ Limited spots available
Please update your RSVP if your plans change so others can join.
As AI becomes embodied and enters our physical environments, new challenges and questions emerge at the intersection of technology, policy, and everyday life: how do trust, responsibility, and everyday decisions evolve when AI becomes a presence?
For this edition, we’re bringing this conversation to life.
🎤 Guest speaker: Emily Kate Genatowski
AI Domestic Robotics Researcher working at the intersection of technology, policy, and lived experience.
Emily is a historian and PhD Candidate at The University of Vienna with a backgrund spanning Harvard, Columbia, Google Arts & Culture (collaborating with institutions such as NASA and the White House).
Through immersive research - including living with Tova, a Unitree bipedal humanoid robot, for a year - Emily investigates the real-world frictions shaping our AI future: from legal gaps and infrastructure to trust, identity, and everyday coexistence.
🤖 And yes, you’ll also meet Tova, joining us for this session.
Expect an interactive evening with:
grounded, hands-on insights
real-life inspired scenarios
a space to reflect together across disciplines
