    About

    Along with foundational and applied training of the next generation of leaders, researchers and engineers in building future AI-based healthcare technologies, this program aims to raise awareness on the risks associated with a society progressively more dependent on AI and provide a learning environment to debate and brainstorm on these timely and pressing concepts. More specifically the programme will encourage students to discuss the ethical benefits that arise as a side effect of the technical capabilities of AI but also ethical issues of AI such as cost to innovation, harm to physical integrity, disappearance of jobs, lack of privacy, transparency, or informed consent.
