SUMMARY:Ethical Management of AI: A French-American Dialogue on Privacy\, Trust and Human Oversight in Health and Well-Being
DESCRIPTION:#FranceAtlanta2020 | Artificial intelligence (AI) models are now capable of collecting and analyzing enormously large databases in ways that are challenging fundamental values claimed in Europe and the United States. Throughout their lifecycle\, AI programs and algorithms – which are full of promises of increased productivity\, efficiency\, and quality time; and conceived as an assistant\, a peer\, a manager\, or even as a friend – might be so revolutionary that no one\, regardless of whether they are consumers\, citizens\, operators or stakeholders\, will remain unaffected. Nonetheless\, AI empowers the machine to such a point that it may jeopardize what is to be human compared to a machine\, what it is to have free choice\, and even what it is to play a role in society. France\, the European Union\, and the United States have not yet clearly defined the approaches they will take to address these ethical issues. The governments are\, in 2020\, still considering options to maximize the potential of AI and big data while mitigating ethical dilemmas. \nThis virtual event is free and open to the public. \n**Stay tuned for the registration link! \n  \nThis event is organized by the Georgia Institute of Technology\, the Consulate General of France in Atlanta\, the Emory University Center for Ethics\, the Georgia Tech School of Interactive Computing\, the Université de Nantes\, SKEMA Business School\, and French Tech Raleigh – Research Triangle\, with the support of the Atlanta Office of the Cultural Services of the Embassy of France in the United State and the Office for Science and Technology of the Embassy of France in the United States. \n#FranceAtlanta | Created in 2010 by the Consulate General of France in Atlanta and Georgia Tech\, France-Atlanta is a series of events centered on innovation and designed to foster cooperation between France and the U.S. Southeast. \nDiscover this year’s events☞ https://france-atlanta.org \n\n\n	From the archive:

DESCRIPTION:#FranceAtlanta2020 | On the occasion of the 2020 edition of France-Atlanta\, the French Foreign Trade Advisors for the U.S. Southeast are hosting a series of webinars on major transatlantic trends\, showcasing experts from both France and the United States. The webinars will focus on the impact of the health and economic crisis due to COVID-19 on several key sectors including education (particularly distance learning)\, remote working\, agri-business\, the shared economy\, investment opportunities\, and more. \nA recent survey showed that more than 8 in 10 Americans have experienced some change in their habits surrounding eating and food preparation as a consequence of the COVID-19 health and economic crisis. We’ve witnessed competing and complementary trends including an increase in at-home cooking and food-delivery services\, as well as an increase in both snacking and healthy food consumption. A panel of experts and professionals from the food industry representing all segments of the food chain\, and from both sides of the Atlantic\, will debate to determine if these changes are structural or will be short-lived. \nPanelists:\n– Moderator: Bruno Jactel\, Founder and CEO\, Pert!nent\n– Didier Arnaud\, Owner\, Epicurean Food – COO\, Monarch Beverage\n– François Léger\, President and CEO\, FPL Food\n– David Maloni\, Executive Vice President Analytics\, ArrowStream \nNominated by the French Prime Minister by official decree\, French Foreign Trade Advisors are members of a network of 4\,000+ business leaders who share their business experience\, on a voluntary basis\, to contribute to the development of France.\n#FranceAtlanta | Created in 2010 by the Consulate General of France in Atlanta and Georgia Tech\, France-Atlanta is a series of events centered on innovation and designed to foster cooperation between France and the U.S. Southeast. \nDiscover this year’s events☞ https://france-atlanta.org \n\n\n	From the archive:

SUMMARY:The Education Revolution: Brand new world or simply a better one for every individual?
DESCRIPTION:#FranceAtlanta2020 | On the occasion of the 2020 edition of France-Atlanta\, the French Foreign Trade Advisors for the U.S. Southeast are hosting a series of webinars on major transatlantic trends\, showcasing experts from both France and the United States. The webinars will focus on the impact of the health and economic crisis due to COVID-19 on several key sectors including education (particularly distance learning)\, remote working\, agri-business\, the shared economy\, investment opportunities\, and more. \nThe health and economic crises engendered by COVID-19 have accelerated profound changes that began several years ago. They highlighted the societal and structural problems of growing inequalities\, access to education\, and the growing mismatch between the available workforce and new professional and technical needs. College degrees\, once seen as the panacea and an unquestionable investment\, are being increasingly challenged by alternative credentials and modular learning activities. At the same time\, a growing percentage of the population is at risk of being permanently unemployed as their occupations are being made obsolete\, threatened by AI/automation and/or offshoring. Could those millions of individuals be the response to the shortage of qualified candidates experienced by large technology corporations and more generally unfilled STEM roles? How do we re-skill a large number of motivated and committed individuals at a reasonable cost and speed? In the past few years\, the Ed Tech revolution has enabled unprecedented flexibility\, personalized learning\, high engagement at a minimal cost. Come and join us to hear from those of leaders\, from both France and Atlanta\, each contributing and collaborating\, to solve dramatic societal issues and give hope and a bright future to thousands of Atlanta residents and global citizens. \nPanelists:\n– Moderator: Iwan Streichenberger\, former President of Pearson Online Learning\n– Pierre Dubuc\, co-founder and CEO of OpenClassrooms\n– Steve Harmon\, associate dean of research in Georgia Tech Professional Education (GTPE)\, interim executive director of the Center for 21st Century Universities (C21U)\, and as a professor at the Georgia Tech College of Design \n__\nNominated by the French Prime Minister by official decree\, French Foreign Trade Advisors are members of a network of 4\,000+ business leaders who share their business experience\, on a voluntary basis\, to contribute to the development of France. \n#FranceAtlanta | Created in 2010 by the Consulate General of France in Atlanta and Georgia Tech\, France-Atlanta is a series of events centered on innovation and designed to foster cooperation between France and the U.S. Southeast. \nDiscover this year’s events☞ https://france-atlanta.org \n\n\n	From the archive:
