Come viene narrata da media e istituzioni e come viene percepita dal pubblico l'Intelligenza artificiale in Cina, in Italia e in altri contesti culturali?

E' questa la domanda al centro della Giornata di studi internazionale “Artificial Intelligence, Human Perception. Media Discourse and Public Opinion in Italy and China" in programma il 30 gennaio 2025 nel quadro del progetto di ricerca “Artificial Intelligence and Human Perception: Media Discourse and Public Opinion in Italy and China” (AI-HU), finanziato dall’Unione Europea – NextGenerationEU (D.M. 737/2021 – Linea d’intervento Iniziative di ricerca interdisciplinare su temi di rilievo trasversale per il PNR, p.i.
