Description :

Artificial Intelligence is no longer a futuristic concept—it is the invisible logic running our world, from our daily news feeds to global financial systems. For many, however, AI remains a confusing, highly technical, and often intimidating subject.

Join us for this foundational, non-technical lecture designed to demystify AI and provide the essential background you need to navigate the coming decades. This is your chance to move beyond the buzzwords and gain genuine clarity on the technology that is fundamentally reshaping our society.

By the end of this talk, you will have the confidence and vocabulary to understand the future of technology and fully participate in the critical conversations happening across the rest of this AI series.
