DESCRIPTION:\n\nWhat does time well spent look like in a world of AI? How should we be using AI in and outside of work? What can AI allow us to do with our time that we couldn't do before? How is AI changing the ways we learn and strive? \n\n\n\nJoin us for a lively conversation between The New Yorker's Joshua Rothman and Ian Bogost\, WashU's Co-Executive Director of Public Scholarship\, centered on how AI is affecting humanity and how we should approach our relationship with the technology. \n\n\n\nRothman and Bogost will discuss how AI is shaping the way we spend our time\, how they each view its role in their own lives\, what skills will matter most in a world increasingly dependent on AI\, and how to hold on to the human practices and processes worth preserving. \n\n\n\nJoshua Rothman is the author of The New Yorker's weekly column Open Questions\, which explores what it means to be human. \n\n\n\nIan Bogost holds the Barbara and David Thomas Distinguished Professorship and is a professor of Film & Media Studies and Computer Science & Engineering at WashU. He is also a columnist at The Atlantic\, a technologist\, and author of the forthcoming book The Small Stuff: How to Lead a More Gratifying Life. \n\n\n\nThis event is part of the Office of the Provost's +AI Initiative. \n\n\n\n\n\nRegister Here\n\n\n\n\nThis event will be available via livestream\; Zoom link forthcoming following registration for the event.\n
