Discover what the future may hold  - from driverless cars to robotic health carers, where is AI taking us? What benefits will AI bring to our lives and what concerns should we have?

Our expert speakers include Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael Wooldridge of the University of Oxford; Praminda Caleb-Solly of the University of the West of England; Claire Jepson of Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Foundation Trust; Helen Weatherly of the University of York; Kirsty Lloyd-Jukes of Latent Logic; and Dave Baldwin of Thatcham Research.
