UC3M | Theater and Science: Challenges and Opportunities of Artificial Intelligence

---

A popular science show on various aspects related to Artificial Intelligence, such as the legal challenges of deepfakes or their use in areas as diverse as intelligent cars, cybersecurity, aeronautics and climate science or telecommunications of the future. This event alternates scenes from a play with talks by UC3M research staff on scientific projects funded by the European Union. Morning session aimed at Secondary Schools. Free reservation: through an electronic form (see web page). Afternoon session open to the general public: free admission; invitations available at the information points of the Student Orientation Center from September 16; or the same day of the performance from 17h and until the beginning of the performance (while seats last).

Theater: The world is in a mess. And society is very unhappy with how its politicians and institutions do not offer solutions to its real problems. But in the general election campaign, a new political formation that seems to be sensible and that gives an answer to the current challenges is bursting with force. Its electoral program seems to attract general consensus for being almost indisputable: impeccable in its diagnosis and effective in its proposals. But who is behind this new party? In the play “Democrac-IA” some young people comment on the current political situation of this fictitious world (although very similar to the real one) and they will have to decide their vote thinking about power, knowledge and technology.
