"The development of Artificial Intelligence could spell the end of the human race" - Stephen Hawking, Theoretical Physicist
"If you had all the world's information attached to your brain... you'd be better off" - Sergey Brin, Co-Founder of Google
Don't believe either argument? Neither do we.
For the first time ever, the University of Queensland Debating Society have partnered with the UQ Faculty of Science to bring you a public debate like no other. Organised by UQ students, for UQ students, this debate will shed light on the state of artificial intelligence, and whether we should go any further. Hear the perspectives of world-leading academics and researchers, as they face-off in an attempt to convince you whether or not "we should cease all research into artificial intelligence".
