As generative AI becomes faster, cheaper, and more convincing, its ethical challenges are moving from theory to reality. What happens when the tools to deceive become widely accessible? And how do we develop systems that are both powerful and trustworthy?
At the upcoming AI event on June 5 at UC Berkeley’s Zellerbach Hall, Artemis Seaford from ElevenLabs and Ion Stoica, co-founder of Databricks and a UC Berkeley professor, will dive into these crucial ethical issues. Their discussion will address one of the most pressing questions in technology today: What are we unleashing, and can we still control it?
Artemis Seaford offers a unique perspective with her extensive academic background combined with practical experience. Leading AI safety at ElevenLabs, she focuses on media authenticity and preventing abuse. With a history at OpenAI and Meta, and expertise in global risk management, she will provide clear insights into deepfakes, emerging risks, and effective interventions.
Ion Stoica provides a systems-level perspective. As a visionary in AI research, he has been instrumental in building the infrastructure that underpins many advanced AI technologies today. His experience as executive chairman of Databricks and founder of several AI companies gives him a deep understanding of responsible scaling and the current limitations of AI tools.
Together, Seaford and Stoica will explore the ethical blind spots in today’s tech, discuss embedding safety into core architectures, and examine the collaborative roles of industry, academia, and regulation in advancing AI responsibly.
