What happens when technology advances faster than the rules governing it?

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in our daily lives, Americans will face a fundamental question: will we control the technology, or will it control us? Can its transformative benefits outweigh the risks to jobs, privacy, democracy, and even our humanity? Through a series of hypothetical dilemmas, prominent voices from technology, culture, politics, and journalism debate the ethical challenges posed by AI and search for common understanding about the profound stakes of a rapidly evolving technology.

This program was recorded live at The New York Historical Society. Learn more at www.nyhistory.org
