Just as the impacts of climate change vary geographically, so do our conversations and the language we choose to use around climate disasters. This event encourages us to consider how we discuss land, water, nonhuman life, colonialism, the changes impacting each of us, and how language is expressed through our position and location.

Recent advances in AI, ML, and Robotics have driven increased attention to ethical questions about the impact of technology on society. These include relationships between the value of technology and its safety; surveillance and privacy; fairness and bias; and the future of work and economic inequality, among others. We can take steps toward a unified approach to these questions, drawing on several disciplines including theories of evolution, games, business, cooperation, and trust. In this talk, Benjamin Kuipers will explore that approach and its implications for the deployment and regulation of AI technologies.

Join thought leaders across academic disciplines and industry, government, and nonprofit sectors to learn about opportunities and challenges when it comes to ensuring that AI systems are ethical, values-driven, and beneficial to everyone.

The scope of criminal legal surveillance, from the police to the prisons, has expanded rapidly in recent decades. At the same time, the use of big data has spread across a range of fields, including finance, politics, health, and criminal justice. Drawing on fieldwork conducted within the Los Angeles Police Department, I show how law enforcement uses predictive analytics and new surveillance technologies to allocate resources, identify criminal suspects, and conduct investigations.

Planet Texas 2050’s annual symposium brings together university faculty, researchers, staff, students, practitioners, artists, and community members interested in applied interdisciplinary research on climate resilience, adaptation, and equitable and just transition strategies.
