Our speakers bring technical, governance and research perspectives, and we’ll open the floor for questions afterwards. 🎤 Our speakers Professor Wayne Holmes: Full Professor of Critical Studies of Artificial Intelligence and Education at the UCL Knowledge Lab, and UNESCO Chair in the Ethics of AI and Education.
