Crazy about science: the dream worlds of AI prophets

What does Elon Musk dream about? What novels lie on Sam Altman's bedside table? What altar does Peter Thiel kneel at? And why should we care about it?

Anders Søgaard is one of the country's leading experts in machine learning and artificial intelligence. And then he's a fiction writer. He describes himself as a double agent trying to bridge the gap between tech and humanism.

In the book Packing List for the Future from 2025, he presents a critical conversation about artificial intelligence and tech utopias.

Experience such a conversation when we ask the professor if we're headed for fully automated luxury communism or a world taken straight out of a dystopian sci-fi novel.

Join us as he gives his take on how best to prepare for the future and what we need to read to become wiser about it.

Vild med ScienceThe events are part of Copenhagen Libraries' festival “Vild med science”, which takes place in October and November. Here you can experience the dissemination of science to adults in many different formats at all Copenhagen Libraries.
