Colloquium Speaker: Peter W. Singer

P.W. Singer has been described by the Wall Street Journal as “the premier futurist in the national-security environment,” an official “Mad Scientist” for the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command, and consults for groups that range from the CIA and the Pentagon to Hollywood. The author of the new book Burn-In: A Novel of the REAL Robotic Revolution, Singer will discuss the key issues of AI and automation that will shape the world of tomorrow, as well as the new model of "useful fiction" to communicate new tech and trends.
