09 Feb - 06:30 PM
London, United Kingdom
Exponential View's dinner series begins it 2017 programme with a discussion between Dr Kate Devlin and Azeem Azhar on what will happen when we get up close and personal with robots.
The evening is led by Dr Kate Devlin from the Department of Computing at Goldsmiths, University of London. She will explore the implications of human-robot relationships as we develop closer connections with AI. What does getting personal and intimate with robots mean for our physical and emotional wellbeing? Why and how does robot intimacy offer new opportunities for self-expression and freedom, or not?
In our convivial dinner setting, we will also discuss some of the philosophical, legal and bioethical areas of debate about living with robots in intimate, personal dimensions of everyday human life.
Kate Devlin is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Computing at Goldsmiths, University of London. In December 2016 she ran the UK's first sex tech hackathon and chaired the Second International Congress on Love and Sex with Robots. Her current research in Human Computer Interaction and Artificial Intelligence focuses on how sex and sexuality shape technology.
Food & drinks will be served.
This event is in collaboration with BGF Ventures who are kindly hosting us and providing libations.
