Keynote Address

Consciousness and Our Evolving Relationship with AI

This interactive session takes the audience on an empowering journey through the mind and deep into our intelligence as we enter this new era of existence. How can new neuroscience knowledge help us achieve human centeredness? How do we better access and deploy the innate human brain power we already have? What role might brain machine interfaces play in our species progression? How do we ensure our relationship with AI and technology evolves successfully whilst playing to our species' innate brain strengths? Join award winning neuroscientist Dr Hannah Critchlow for this interactive session exploring our species future.
