UBC Okanagan Debates: AI and us.

Sunday, March 1, 2026     3:00 PM

Kelowna Community Theatre, 1375 Water Street, Kelowna

No technology has promised to reshape humanity as profoundly as artificial intelligence. Its promise—alongside its risks—now forces us to grapple with one of the most consequential debates of the 21st century.

Some argue that AI is a powerful tool and an evolutionary step in human history—one that can offload routine tasks and allow humans to focus on higher-level problem-solving, empathy, and meaningful connection. Others contend that the rapid adoption of AI threatens to erode the foundation of human society, including trust, critical thinking, and authentic relationships, potentially deskilling humanity to a point of no return.

Join this live debate on Sunday, March 1 as leading experts debate whether AI will enhance or diminish the human experience.
