Masterclass
AI is on the verge of changing our work and our lives fundamentally. It opens up completely new possibilities to work and create. But we need to discuss essential questions about ethics and sustainability. This includes grasping the societal effects of AI, tackling issues like data privacy or bias in algorithms, but also dismantling the massive environmental impacts. On the other hand: doesn’t AI offer the potential to help create more sustainable, fair and ethical digital experiences?
For us, the essential dilemma is not if AI should be used, but how and when its application can be made ethically, sustainable and beneficially for a better future in our projects.
This Masterclass will discuss the negative impacts of Gen AI as well as positive opportunities and how to balance these in a responsible way. In a mixture of lecture parts and a practical workshop part, you will be provided with practical guidelines for the responsible use of AI and learn how to use the “Responsible AI Canvas” to evaluate AI use-cases.
This Masterclass-Workshop has been available as a live-workshop only until today and has been facilitated at conferences like the World Usability Day Estonia or in company setups.
Upon high demand we created this online version of this Masterclass to make it available for you no matter from where in the world you would like to join.

"Thorstens enthusiasm was contagious and the session flew so very fast!
We explored how AI is transforming our industry and us, while shifting from optimization of work routines to deep philosophical discussions about the long-term impact on our industry— and future generations. As one of my teammates nicely put it “We started with some practical stuff but ended up in an existential crisis.”
I'm leaving with plenty of food for thought and excited to visit tomorrow’s conference where Thorsten Jonas will elaborate on the topic of Responsible AI."
- Daria, Participant of the Live-Workshop at WUD Estonia
