Join us to hear more on what our top researchers find as the most challenging ethical questions in using artificial intelligence,  examples on what kind of ethical challenges the City of Helsinki has confronted in using artificial intelligence in public administration and how exactly is the cooperation between European city administrations and the University of Helsinki going to help us to understand better what kind of challenges the technological changes are going to bring us in the near future and how to address them.

Our keynotes are  Jan Vapaavuori, Mayor of Helsinki and Pekka Ala-Pietilä, chair of the EU comission High-Level Expert Group on Artificial Intelligence.
