The Ethics of AI Agents

Description

AI agents such as advanced personal assistants are rapidly moving from concept to deployment. With their autonomous ability to plan, act, and interact socially on behalf of users, these systems raise pressing ethical and societal questions.

This event brings together researchers and the public to discuss the real-world implications of deploying such agents and the practical ethical challenges that are already emerging.

Key questions we'll address
- How do we prevent AI agents from manipulating users?
- How do we govern AI agents that may act on behalf of individuals but impact society at large?
- What role does personalisation play, and when does it become problematic?
- How can we evaluate and regulate AI agents embedded in social, economic, and political systems?
Who should attend?

The event is for researchers, practitioners, students, and anyone curious about the ethical dimensions of AI agents.
