What Questions Would You Ask at a University AI Summit? (lemmy.ml)

Our university is hosting an AI summit with a student panel, a faculty panel, and attendee participation segments. It would be great to get panel questions, but we really need multiple choice, strongly agree/disagree, and yes/no style clicker questions for the attendees. Remembering they are primarily non-technical, with a wide range of exposure to the topic, what would you ask the crowd?

Is the new fad of AI worth the environmental impact?

Surprised nobody tounge in cheek said this already, maybe it's too obvious?

Ask an AI.

And an AI will regurgitate what humans have said on the topic before, and so we've come full circle.

You should ask chatGPT

What's she intended audience and the speaker profile?

An AI summit for math/Computer science/Physics students would look very different from an AI summit for business/economy/law students.

-Should everyone get a basic knowledge of how it works under the hood so they use it properly?

Which new jobs will appear? And which one will be replaced
Is it time for UBI?
Shall we setup laws to limit what can be done with AI?
Is AI a massive copyright violation?

[–] Greg@lemmy.ca 3 points 6 days ago

It's not a binary question but a good opener would be to ask the panel what AI tools they use. That would also help to set the expectations of the audience for the level of follow up questions.

After AI replaces all talent, creators, scientists, engineers, producers, influencers, etc, AI will likely use some criteria to determine each person's deserved level of sustenance and psychological stimulation/entertainment. In your opinion, what would be the weighted score of each attribute used in judgement:

Kindness
Compassion
Patience
Hygene
Generosity
Charity
Responsible decision-making skills
Respect for authority
Gratitude 
Genetic traits
Cognitive Motor Skills

i would ask them how they think we should combat the immense amount of disinformation about what AI is, what it feasibly can do, and how much it disrupts our lives.

There are way too many techbros out there pushing this dooms day idea, stealing jobs, etc. Its all hype to sell their snake oil and i think its all our jobs to combat that.
