The fourth in the Conversations Across the Creek series was a lively discussion about ethical issues with various technologies such as drones used in warfare, Artificial Intelligence, the benefits and concerns with police body cameras, and machine learning. This session’s speakers were: Dr Adam Henschke (National Security College; College of Asia & Pacific), Professor Marcus Hutter (Research School of Computer Science), Dr Emmeline Taylor (School of Sociology; College of Arts and Social Sciences), Associate Professor Lexing Xie (Research School of Computer Science). The Conversations Across the Creek series is an initiative of the Humanities Research Centre and the Centre for the Public Awareness of Science. ‘Conversations’ seeks to highlight the commonalities and interesting intersections that exist across the university through TED-style talks delivered by academics from both sides of Sullivan’s Creek.
