About the Event

Following the conversation, we invite you to join us for a meet-and-greet with the speaker and light refreshments.

Event Synopsis:
The question this book answers is, how can we use AI to unlock humanity's full potential while protecting what is most precious about the human experience?
As humanity takes its first steps into the Age of Artificial Intelligence, we are only just beginning to think through the possibilities and the dangers this technology brings. But we do not have time for leisurely speculation. AI will overturn the world we know in our lifetimes, and we must prepare ourselves to meet the unprecedented changes that will soon be upon us.
In Transcend: Unlocking Humanity in the Age of AI, Faisal Hoque, one of the world's leading management thinkers and technologists, and a bestselling author, provides readers with the road maps they need to tackle the most important questions of our generation.
A unique perspective that emerges at the intersection of philosophy, humanity, business, and technology
Powerful practical frameworks to guide the reader in thinking about and using AI
The OPEN framework for unlocking the potential of AI
The CARE framework for protecting against its dangers
Structured approaches to AI tailored for individuals, businesses, and government agencies
