After being struck down by Covid, our Managing Editor Lucy Smith has been unable to make the journey to AAAI 2024 to deliver the AIhub training session on science communication for AI researchers. However, Professor Michael Wooldridge has very kindly stepped in, and will present on “How to speak to the public about AI”.

In this talk, Michael will elaborate on 14 lessons that he has learnt during his time communicating about AI. His vast experience in speaking about AI has ranged from media interviews, to advising the UK Government, to giving the prestigious Royal Institute Christmas Lectures.

The talk will take place today (Wednesday 21 February) from 14:00 – 15:00 in room 113, Vancouver Convention Centre.

This promises to be informative, educational and entertaining, so don’t miss it!

For those of you who are interested in our original training material, you can find out more about the cancelled course here. We will be working to deliver this training on another occasion.

You can find the course slides here.
