AI vs SCI-FI: WHAT HAS SCIENCE FICTION SAID ABOUT ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, AND WHAT IT SAYS NOW

Roundtable
Start date:
08/11/2023
End date
08/11/2023
When
18:30
Where
Fabra i Coats. Room 2 (ground floor)

Lately, artificial intelligence has become increasingly newsworthy because of the extraordinary advances being made in this field. However, AI and the potential advantages and dangers it entails for humanity have always been one of the recurring themes in science fiction literature. It still is in many new releases this year, such as El somni de la Mia (Estrella Polar/Destino, 2023), a young adult adventure written by M. J. Bausá and  the AI expert Marta R. Costa-Jussà, as well as the adult novel El peso del humo (Alberto Santos Editor, 2023) by Tannia R. Tamayo, a story in which the past and future, individual and species, emotions and reason converge. So, what has science fiction contributed to this theme? Bausà and Tamayo will reflect on this question along with the science fiction expert Lola Robles (author of different stories on AI) and the UPC professor and author of essays in science and science fiction, Manuel Moreno. Cristina Jurado, a genre author with a great deal of insight into the topic, will host the event.
