Topic: **Augmentation tech, AI, and the future of an AI-enhanced self**

* ChatGPT and more advanced AI systems are increasingly becoming embedded in augmentation technologies that enhance human capability or productivity. These technologies can add cognitive, physical, sensory, and emotional enhancements to the body or environment. How can we work toward more ethical designs for future tech through civic engagement and collaboration?

Speakers: **Isabel Pedersen**
