The Human in the Machine: Myths, Realities, and the Future of AI

Taha Yasseri (Professor of Technology and Society, Trinity College Dublin)

AI often seems to have a gender—why is that? This talk explores how we humanize machines, why AI assistants are often female, and how technology can reinforce biases. How can we build a more fair AI future?

Age-Friendly AI: Ireland's National Artificial Intelligence Literacy Initiative

Dympna O'Sullivan (Lead, Digital Futures Research Hub, Technological University Dublin)
