Coloradan Conversations: From discussion to action
Do stories in the Coloradan ever make you think differently, inspire you to want to learn more or even take action? Have you ever brought up the topic around the dinner table or shared a story with a fellow CU Boulder alum? That kind of community-led discussion is the impetus for the dialogue series Coloradan Conversations.
Coloradan Conversations: AI in Tech, Art and Ethics
Each Coloradan Conversation brings Forever Buffs and the CU Boulder community together to discuss a topic relevant not only on campus, but around the world. This series invites engagement and connection with thought leaders and fellow Forever Buffs about topics presented in the Coloradan alumni magazine.
During the kickoff event of the 2024 series, hear from CU experts about the ethics of artificial intelligence and how AI impacts the arts and society. Following the presentation and Q&A panel, continue the conversation with fellow attendees during a catered reception featuring CU research exhibits.
