Speakers 

Faculty and presentation

Theodoros Evgeniou
From semiconductors to human decision making replacement?
Slides

Humans are biased. So are machines - humans say. What happens when you put the two together? How did we end up to a place where this question is even on the table? All some people (scientists and engineers) wanted to do in the 1940s or so was a few “AND and OR” operations, how did we reach here? What does it mean for management? Will we finally get past the “leadership stuff” of the 20th century management thinking - and what are the next big management and societal questions in the world of humans and machines? Can we even expect any answers to these questions?

Who is coming?

The participant's list is subject to change. A new version of the attendees list will be posted regularly.

If you have any questions, please contact us.
