The lecture is made possible through the TAMIU A. R. Sanchez, Jr. School of Business and the Center for the Study of Western Hemispheric Trade as part of a series sponsored by IBC Bank and Commerce Bank.
As A.I. systems continue to grow and develop, these emerging technologies reconfigure how we live, work, and relate to one another. This discussion will delve into how A.I. will shape our collective future.
