DESCRIPTION:Join us on Monday\, November 14\, 2022\, when Avi Goldfarb from
  the University of Toronto joins us to share his research.\n\nJoin us for 
 lunch starting at 11:45am\, with talk to follow 12-1pm. \n\nAbstract: Arti
 ficial intelligence presents an extraordinary opportunity and an extraordi
 nary threat. But not in the way that might be expected. Today’s AI is be
 st understood as prediction technology rather than a machine that can do e
 verything humans do. Prediction technology can nevertheless transform indu
 stries. It does this by decoupling prediction from the other aspects of de
 cision-making\, thereby enabling new ways of delivering value. Unleashing 
 this potential requires the invention of new ways of operating\, many of w
 hich remain undiscovered. Today\, we sit in a striking phase in the develo
 pment of this technology\, The Between Times after witnessing AI’s poten
 tial\, but before its widespread impact. On the other side of The Between 
 Times\, when this process of invention is complete\, the changes in decisi
 ons will mean changes in power. In industry\, power confers profits\; in s
 ociety\, power confers control.
