Online - AI Ethics - How far along are we?

🎤 Join us for our slightly shorter format of the AI-ZA meetup. Since we're all on video calls throughout the day, we thought a shorter session would be appreciated.

🚨 The link to the video conference will be shared closer to the time of the event.

ℹ️ Info
We've expanded the topic range of the meetup to include anything "future tech" such as IoT, VR/AR, Game development, Cloud, etc. We're also trying to include a lightning talk at each event exclusively for new presenters to help encourage more people to share their work and gain experience speaking and interacting with the community. So get in touch to speak 💯
