Event description

What if artificial intelligence doesn’t just take our jobs, but challenges everything we believe makes us unique?

Artificial intelligence is surpassing human capabilities in one field after another. It writes, creates, analyses and solves problems once considered exclusively human. But what happens when machines begin to master the very abilities that have always defined our uniqueness?

Joining us at TechTower is PhDr. Lukáš Sedláček, MPhil., founder of Innovation Week, author, sculptor and expert in connecting technology with the social sciences. A graduate of Charles University and the University of Cambridge, he has spent years exploring how technological progress transforms the way we think, live and understand ourselves.

In his lecture Naked in the Age of AI: Who Are We When Machines Think Better Than Us?, he will take us on a journey from historical ideas of human exceptionalism through AlphaGo’s groundbreaking victory to today’s accelerating AI race.

Why aren’t we as rational about AI as we think? What ethical questions are we overlooking? And could technological progress actually help us rediscover the most valuable aspects of being human?

What can you expect? A thought-provoking perspective on humanity’s future, surprising connections between technology and psychology, and an open discussion about the qualities that algorithms cannot simply replace – creativity, empathy, humour and human connection.

The lecture is part of Schrödingerova čočka, a series bringing together science, art and inspiring minds in an intimate setting. No passive screen time – just meaningful conversations, fresh perspectives and the opportunity to explore the world through a different lens.
