AI in Daily Life, Work, and Design - Caitlin Begg-masterclass

Expert in digital communication and sociotechnical systems strategy Caitlin Begg, who is giving talks across Europe and the United States, will be delivering a public lecture at the university. Her research explores the impact of technology on everyday life, communication, digital interactions, ethical artificial intelligence, and sociotechnical systems.

Begg is an American sociologist, the founder of Authentic Social, a company that develops sociotechnical system strategies for organisations with a hybrid or primarily remote workforce model. These strategies optimise social, digital, and technological systems to enhance organisational success through analysis and learning, resulting in reduced turnover and frustration, increased efficiency and engagement, and improved communication.

Begg holds a degree in Sociology from Harvard University and conducts research in artificial intelligence. Her work has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Business Insider, Mashable, and Yahoo! News. She also hosts the podcast Progression to Analog, where she offers practical advice and interviews experts and researchers on how to make daily life more human in a world increasingly influenced by technology.

The event will be moderated by Lili Érmezei, and takes place as part of the Global Voices initiative.
