xLab invites the Case Western Reserve University community to join a thought-provoking discussion on artificial intelligence (AI) and personal data ownership with three leading experts: Alex “Sandy” Pentland (MIT and Stanford), Thomas Hardjono (MIT) and Youngjin Yoo (CWRU).
This webinar, titled “Personal Data Ownership in the Age of AI,” will be held Tuesday, Nov. 12, from 1 to 1:50 p.m.
As AI technologies continue to shape our digital landscape, the question of who owns personal data and how it is used has never been more critical. This webinar will explore the ways personal data ownership is being transformed in the age of AI, and what this means for individuals and organizations alike.
