About this leqture:
What are the consequences of China’s rapid growth in technology? Western news media are full of panic stories about Huawei, the social credit system, surveillance, artificial intelligence and big data, that China is supposed to use to build an Orwellian control society. This session examines whether this fear is justified, it explains the Chinese technology agenda and shows what the impact will be on Europe.
Over deze leqture:
Wat betekent China’s snelle groei in technologie? Westerse nieuwsmedia staan bol van paniekverhalen over Huawei, het sociale kredietsysteem, surveillance, kunstmatige intelligentie en big data, waarvan gedacht wordt dat China die zal aanwenden om een Orwelliaanse controlemaatschappij op te bouwen. Deze kennissessie gaat in op de vraag of die angst gerechtvaardigd is, het duidt de Chinese technologie-agenda en laat zien wat de impact hiervan zal zijn op Nederland en Europa.
