recently brought together\u00a0more than 100 professionals from 18 U.S. states and overseas, discussing artificial intelligence and presenting topical research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">AI presents both significant promise and real challenges, engaging a wide range of perspectives that were\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">covered at the University\u2019s first AI-themed interdisciplinary conference,\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">Confronting the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">, held April 16-18.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Despite the countless points of view and interpretations about AI, however, common ground at the conference was found in the conscientious approach scholars have taken toward the technology and the unanimous agreement that it is here to stay.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">\u201cOur responsibility now is to determine how to live with it in ways that won\u2019t diminish human lives and instead will promote the common good,\u201d said George Aulisio, Ph.D., dean of the Weinberg Memorial Library. \u201cI can think of no place more fitting than The University of Scranton to bring together scholars committed to exploring the ethical dimensions of a technology already shaping people\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Dr. Aulisio was one of the event\u2019s co-planners, along with Megan Heeder, Ph.D., assistant professor of theology and religious studies,
