“Incredibly talented speakers like Flynn Coleman have the ability to break down complicated topics like Artificial Intelligence in a way that let’s us ALL understand! We were blown away by the knowledge she’s shared at Plywood Presents and now those smart machines make a lot more sense!” – Plywood Presents
Dear SFS Members and Friends,
Together with our partners; EF Education First, the Swedish Swiss Chamber of Commerce, Norgesklubben and The Swedish Women’s Educational Association, we have something special planned for 2 November 2023 in Zürich. Get tickets here
Flynn Coleman—author, international human rights attorney, Fellow at Harvard and Yale, and professor—will discuss the timely topic of AI and Human Rights.
A true expert in the field, she has been named a Technology & Human Rights Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy. She authored the book, A Human Algorithm, a groundbreaking narrative on the urgency of humanely designed AI and a guidebook to reimagining life in the era of intelligent technology. She is also a contributing writer for such publications as the Los Angeles Times, Foreign Policy, the Boston Globe, the Los Angeles Review of Books, the Irish Times, Literary Hub, Tech Policy Press, the San Francisco Chronicle, HuffPost, Global Citizen, The Next Web, Darling Magazine, and Nautilus Magazine.
Flynn has worked with the United Nations, the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, the UNHCR, the United States Federal Government, and with international companies, universities, and human rights organizations around the world.
To put it simply, Flynn has a profound understanding of this pressing subject matter, and we are honoured to have her join us for a conversation.
We would also like to remind everyone that memberships for 2023 are now half-price: CHF100. As always, members can attend all our events for free. Learn more
We look forward to seeing you there!
Best regards,
Your SFS Board of Directors
