LSE: Public lectures and events

Contributor(s): Dr Gary Marcus | Is Generative AI morally and technically inadequate? Can we separate the hype around AI from its real potential? Gary Marcus describes the current situation as a perfect storm of corporate irresponsibility, widespread adoption of AI tools, a lack of regulation and a huge number of unknowns. Marcus has a deep love for AI and its potential for humanity, for years he’s foreseen AI’s abilities and limitations well ahead of other experts – from anticipating current problems with driverless cars in 2016 to accurately predicting issues with ChatGPT-4 well before its release.Featured image (used in source code with watermark added): Photo by Google DeepMind via Pexels: https://www.pexels.com/photo/an-artist-s-illustration-of-artificial-intelligence-ai-this-image-depicts-how-ai-could-be-used-in-the-field-of-sustainability-from-biodiversity-to-climate-it-was-created-by-nidia-dias-17485679/
