AI with Measure - Between Enthusiasm and Concern

AI with Measure - lecture: Wednesday 18 November 2026, 19:00–21:00, Vordingborg Bibliotek, Vordingborg. Admission is free.

Artificial intelligence is already part of everyday life - it writes code, accelerates research, and challenges our creativity in ways that would have seemed unthinkable just a few years ago. But the technology has a dark side: AI is used for cyberattacks and misinformation, built into weapons systems, and amplifies the biases it was trained on. Add to this the fact that training itself relies on underpaid workers in the Global South and data centres with massive consumption of electricity and water.

The lecture attempts to paint a nuanced picture - neither purely optimistic nor apocalyptic. The conclusion is twofold: stay informed so you understand the world AI is shaping, and use the technology thoughtfully, so that the benefits are always weighed against resource consumption.
