Panel Discussion: Robot (1.5h)

Presented at TROOPERS18 (2018), March 14, 2018, 5 p.m. (Unknown duration)

The genie is out of the bottle, Elvis has left the building and robots will inherit the earth! How should humans respond to the inevitable evolution of automatons? Join the panel in a fun and fact based discussion about how robots will change the world. They will share threat scenarios that warrant your consideration. Try to dispel misinformation ("fake news"?) about the robot threat and they will try to articulate reasonable responses for mitigating threats posed by robotic adversaries/allies, including hiding, running away, playing dead and bribery.
