Anton Hur & Shannon Vallor: The Unexpected Consequences of Progress

In The AI Mirror, EFI’s Chair in the Ethics of Data and Artificial Intelligence, Shannon Vallor’s research explores how new technologies reshape human moral character, habits, and practices. Novelist Antor Hur’s debut, Toward Eternity, imagines a world where technology is catching up to biology. Talking with Suzy Glass, they discuss AI’s real and imagined effects, and what will ‘being human’ mean in the future?
