Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology is rapidly evolving and impacting human life. This talk will explore questions about the ethical usage of AI technologies, such as: How are we to allocate responsibility in cases of accidents caused by autonomous vehicles? How may we resolve the problem of biased learning in AI behavior? Does AI-generated artwork violate Copyright Law? How are AI-generative technologies and AI-robots impacting the ways humans think, move through the world, and identify themselves as being ‘human’.

Reeve Lindbergh, a daughter of aviator-authors Charles A. and Anne Morrow Lindbergh, was born in 1945 and grew up in Connecticut. After graduating from Radcliffe College in 1968 she moved to Vermont, where she still lives on an old farm near St. Johnsbury, Vermont with her husband, writer Nat Tripp and an assortment of animals, enjoying visits from children and grandchildren.

Ms Lindbergh will share her experiences growing up in a famous family, how she came to writing as a profession, and her insights that have led to her many books and articles.

Reeve is the author of more than two dozen books for children and adults. Her work has appeared in magazines and periodicals including the New York Times Book Review, The New Yorker and The Washington Post. She has served with a number of local, state and national organizations, among them the Charles A and Anne Morrow Lindbergh Foundation, The Harry Frank Guggenheim Foundation and the Vermont Arts Council. Her most recent book is Two Lives, a collection of essays published in 2018, including reflections about her life in Vermont and the complex history of her family. (Brigantine Media)
