Special guest ChatGPT joins us! Would you hire ChatGPT or Bard? Conversational AIs are like super-knowledgeable coworkers promising massive benefits. However, they have other red flags we wouldn't tolerate in a human, like confident BS about subjects they don't understand, plagiarism, and a lack of critical thinking. It's time we look carefully at this new class of tools and their implications for work, life, education, and more—and we'll do it in a conversation with ChatGPT itself.

Join futurist and cyborg anthropologist MJ Petroni for this lively and engaging discussion, crafted to enable you to:

• Understand how LLMs (Large Language Models) 'learn'—or don't

• Explore early, disruptive applications of conversational AIs

• Discuss what's realistic to expect from machine learning tech now and in the near future

If you're unsure or can't make it, sign up anyway—it's free and we'll send you a recording of the session afterward for you to absorb in your own time.
