The Intelligence Question

AI, Work, and the Public Good

Thank You for Attending

This event has concluded and registration is now closed. We appreciate everyone who joined us.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how we work, how we govern, and how we relate to one another right now. Arizona Talks invites you to Greenwood Brewing in Downtown Phoenix for an evening of grounded civic conversation on one of the defining questions of our time: How is AI changing society, and what should engaged citizens actually be thinking about?

This is not a technology briefing. It is a community gathering. Our featured speaker will help cut through the noise, and the evening will open into facilitated dialogue and informal connection over good beer with curious people from across Arizona.

Featured Speaker

David H. Guston

Foundation Professor and Founding Director
School for the Future of Innovation in Society | Arizona State University

David Guston has spent his career at the intersection of science, technology, and democratic society, asking not just what innovation can do, but what it should do, and who gets to decide. As the founding director of ASU's School for the Future of Innovation in Society and a nationally recognized scholar in science and technology policy, he brings rare depth to the question of how emerging technologies like AI shape public life. He is the award-winning author of Between Politics and Science (Cambridge University Press), a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and founding editor of the Journal of Responsible Innovation. His work has been recognized by the American Political Science Association and reviewed in venues from Science magazine to The New York Review of Books. Professor Guston is not a technologist predicting the future. He is a public scholar helping citizens understand the present, and that is exactly what this conversation calls for.
