Lake Forest Library
Register and join us on Zoom for a timely conversation with Karen Hao, award-winning journalist and author of Inside the Empire of AI. Hao explores the rapid rise of artificial intelligence; the social, political, and ethical questions surrounding AI development today; and the questions posed in her work ... Will AI produce broad-based societal benefit for all? Or return us to an age of empire? The path forward is in our hands. Reanna Esmail, Lead Librarian for Instruction at Cornell University and a prominent voice in critical digital pedagogy and intellectual freedom, will join Karen Hao in conversation. This event is made possible by Illinois Libraries Present (ILP), a statewide collaboration among public libraries offering premier events. ILP is funded in part by a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library, a Department of the Office for the Secretary of State, using funds provided by the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services, under the provisions of the Library Services and Technology Act.
