Künstliche Intelligenz verändert alles – nur nicht den Menschen?
AI has a profound impact on work processes, the economy, and everyday life. But what does that mean for us as humans—for creativity, freedom of choice, and values? This lecture questions technological euphoria, highlights opportunities and risks, and shows why human strengths are more important than ever in an AI-driven world.
