Human in the Loop - Moral Imagination in the Age of Artificial Intelligence

What happens when the human in me sees the human in you?

In this deeply personal keynote, Alicia Hanf shares lessons from Afghanistan, the rescue of Afghan girls during the fall of Kabul, and her work at the intersection of technology, healthcare, and human connection.

At a time when artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming society, and many people are carrying a profound sense of collective grief, Alicia explores moral imagination, the ability to imagine the humanity of someone whose life is different from our own.

 stories of war, belonging, storytelling, and hope, she challenges audiences to think beyond technology and toward the human values that shape it.

This keynote is a call to remain curious in the face of certainty, connected in the face of division, and human in the face of extraordinary technological change.

Because humanity is what we’re protecting.

And the future will be shaped by our willingness to keep it in the loop.
