Time: October 9, 17:30-19:30

Sign up at least 24 hours beforehand to get fika!

Together, we will watch and discuss videos covering recent AI advances, unsolved issues in AI safety, potential AI misuse and use in conflicts, and safety challenges involved in developing superintelligence.

Location: Vera Sandbergs Allé 8, Room Vasa 6  

Time: September 25, 17:30-19:30

As AI technology progresses, the risks of societal scale catastrophes—from misuse and AI systems acting autonomously outside of human control to its application in conflicts—are becoming more urgent. In this session, we’ll collaboratively map these risks, assessing their significance and how they compare. Whether you're new to AI safety or looking to deepen your knowledge, this workshop will provide valuable insights into responsible AI development.

Location: SB-H1 at Chalmers, Campus Johanneberg 

Time: September 19, 12:00 PM

Speaker: Professor and Author Olle Häggström

Free lunch for the first 50!

The key trait that has enabled humans to dominate the planet is our intelligence. Now, we're automating this resource with machines, which could bring great benefits—or, as Alan Turing warned in 1951, lead to a machine takeover. How can we ensure this goes well? With experts predicting this critical moment to arrive in years, not decades, the need for answers is urgent.
