AI Revolution: From Machines to Morals
Conference/Seminar
How do we act ethically in the age of Artificial Intelligence? With the revolution of machine learning comes the struggle to use it morally for the common good. To address these issues, the USU Communication Studies and Philosophy Department with the Center for Anticipatory Intelligence presents this year’s Tanner Series Lectures from the Dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences. This conference series brings top scholars from philosophy, the humanities, and the sciences for an interdisciplinary discussion that focuses on machine learning, emerging technology, policy, and ethical dimensions of AI programs.

Contemporary Legends in a Polarized World (Derek Agard Distinguished Lecture)
Lecture/Readings
In a country where trust is at an all-time low and polarization at an all-time high, is everything a legend? Using examples of contemporary or “urban” legends from across the US, Tom Mould, Professor of Anthropology and Folklore (Butler University), explores new approaches to legend research that help us navigate our current landscape of fake news, conspiracy theories, and echo chambers. In the process, Professor Mould upends some long held beliefs about what contemporary legends are, what they do, and what they can tell us about ourselves and the polarized world we live in.
