AI at the Crossroads: Education, Truth, Security and Creativity

Artificial intelligence is reshaping the way we communicate, learn, work, and live. But as AI becomes more powerful and more deeply embedded in everyday life, it also raises some enormous questions.

How will AI continue to shape society in Australia and around the world? What opportunities will it create and what risks should we prepare for?

Featuring experts from across Adelaide University, AI at the Crossroads explores what AI means across four key areas: education, truth, security, and creativity.

Dr Victoria Fielding will explore the growing impact of AI on disinformation and what it means for public discourse and democracy. A Senior Lecturer in AU's School of Communication, Media and Journalism, Dr Fielding is an expert in strategic communication and the influence of media on democracy.

Professor Javen Shi will turn the spotlight to education, exploring how AI is changing the sector and what these changes could mean for the future of teaching and learning. Professor Shi is the Founding Director of the Causal AI Group, Interim Director of the Responsible AI Research Centre, and a Director in Advanced Reasoning and Learning at the Australian Institute for Machine Learning (AIML).

Dr Lia Song will examine current and emerging AI security risks, including the potential impact of malicious content and applications on systems around the world.
