Do you think getting answers is the most important reason to ask questions? Think again! In a world drowning in AI answers, knowing why, when, what, and who to ask has never been more important. Not because our future depends on how good we are at prompting the machines. But because it depends on how good we are at:

• Distinguishing between when to use and not to use AI

• Connecting with each other and the world we share

• Avoiding being deceived by convincing technology

• Understanding the big picture that AI is just a small part of

In “How to Ask in a World of AI Answers”, Dr. Pia Lauritzen uses philosophy, art, science, and — most importantly — the audience’s own questions to demonstrate how the most important reason to ask questions is to stay human. The keynote is for everyone who isn’t ready to hand over their thinking to a machine. And it can be customized to focus on how to ask questions to, for example, lead, educate, or drive change in a world of AI answers.
