Judaism, Jews, and Artificial Intelligence (AI): Machine Learning vs. Enduring Wisdom

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has changed numerous aspects of contemporary life. Since Jews are deeply involved in the design and use of Al systems, this conference examines the challenges of Al in light of the values of the Jewish tradition. Can Judaism help us build a more just and virtuous Al? Can Judaism instruct us how to live with Al? If so, how? presented by Arizona State University Center for Jewish Studies conference sessions free and open to all registration required.
