Black Mirror Effect: Tech’s Unintended Consequence

Description:

The popular Netflix TV series Black Mirror often shows a dystopian view on what happens when technology goes awry. But how much of this is based on reality? And is it really all that bad? In this session, DocuSign’s Robin Joy, WP Engine’s Heather Brunner, and New Relic’s Erica Schultz will join a conversation with SalientMG’s Mack McKelvey on the unintended challenges and opportunities of emerging technology, including a discussion around the use cases, ethics, and pros/cons of technologies like chatbots and AI, as well as a deep dive into the definition of emerging technology’s success.
