Participants of the «3D Modeling» and «Diplomats of the Future» competitions has attended the lecture.
The business game simulates the activities of the future society. The children were divided into «families», they discussed possible problems of centralization and use of artificial intelligence. «The goal of the game is to imagine life in a world where artificial intelligence in many ways replaces a person, which reduces the number of existing professions,» explains one of the experts, Elena Myasnikova.
Each family has chosen their own section, where they were going to work. Each section has different tasks and ways to complete them. Some people open their own business, some of them trying to solve the problems of Medicine. However, they have the same goal – to earn as much money as possible. “We are making business. We are trying to earn as much as possible. We need to involve people whose problems we are trying to solve.” – Ivan Koreev, 16 years old.
During the game, children had encountered with possibilities and threats, that can occur due to development of artificial intelligence, and they exposed how can modern society look like in 10-15 years.
