Future Minds: Creativity and Ethics in the Age of AI

Delivered by Australian AI researchers and educators, the lectures will showcase national contributions to AI research while addressing key questions: What role should AI play in creative work? How do we balance innovation with ethical responsibility? What choices do we want young people and communities to make as technology develops? By encouraging debate rather than providing definitive answers, the lectures will empower audiences to critically evaluate both the promises and the challenges of AI.
