Once again this year, the theme of artificial intelligence will be addressed in a techno-critical way at MTL connect<\/a>. Rendez-vous \u00e0 la 5e \u00e9dition anniversaire, du 10 au 13 octobre 2023<\/strong>, \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9cole NAD<\/a> de Montr\u00e9al et en ligne.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artificial intelligence has been at the heart of Montreal Digital Spring (Printemps num\u00e9rique)<\/a> since its inception, and today more than ever, it raises many questions. Indeed, the influence of AI is undeniably growing in our contemporary society. From autonomous cars to early cancer detection, from virtual assistants to online content recommendation, AI has the potential to bring immense benefits to humanity by improving efficiency, accuracy and productivity in many fields. However, the rise of generative AI brings with it a host of key questions that are generating passionate debate<\/strong>, both here and around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
