“Sapere aude!” It's a Latin phrase loosely translated as “Have the courage to make use of your own intellect." This session explores the role of AI consumers and their needs for responsibility, transparency, accountability, and ethics. What are the cognitive, affective, and social competencies that AI consumers will need in order to increase the benefits and guard against the potential risks of artificial intelligence? What are the best ways for people to acquire and develop these competencies and how can they be measured and tracked over time?
