About TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh
TEDx events feature diverse talks from speakers of varying backgrounds, occupations, and fields, all united by one thing: an idea worth spreading.
We need to address the great unknown surrounding innovation to ensure we build trustworthy and reliable systems which make the world a better place to live for everyone. At TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh in 2023, we’re going to demystify the future impact of some of the great unknowns on society. So often we scramble to keep up with how changing systems impact our lives. How can we use innovation to explore the great unknown whilst deliberately considering its place in our futures?
Very few of us fully understand how our systems work, and whether anyone has real control over them is debatable. Determining and applying digital ethics has been challenging enough, and now that systems could in some ways gain the capacity to ‘think’, conversations around everything from property to security, learning, and even the human essence have become substantially more fraught.
Join us at TEDxUniversityofEdinburgh this year as we are trying to fathom the great unknown!
