What kind of AI future are we building -- and who, or what, will be in charge?

Join Canadian philosopher and ethicist Dr. Christopher DiCarlo for an eye-opening talk based on his provocative new book, Building a God: The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence and the Race to Control It. As AI systems grow more powerful and complex, Christopher DiCarlo explores the urgent ethical questions now facing humanity: Who decides what AI should and shouldn’t do? What happens when machines surpass human intelligence? Can we trust governments—or corporations—with that kind of power?

As a humanist, atheist, agnostic, or simply someone who cares about the future of ethics, democracy, and human dignity in an AI-driven world, this talk is for you. Expect no easy answers—but a compelling call to think critically, act collectively, and question boldly.

Come for the insights. Stay for the stimulating discussion. The future is being written—let’s make sure we have a say in it.
