“Stephen Fry delivered the inaugural lecture for the Living Well With Technology series”, a new initiative by the Digital Futures Institute at King’s College London. Titled AI: A Means to an End or a Means to the End?, the lecture was both lyrical and thought-provoking, setting a powerful tone for the series.

The Living Well With Technology series is a thought-leadership program and book collection that brings together experts from technology, health, policy, business, education, and the creative sectors to envision and shape a better digital future.

Fry was joined on stage by Marcus Weldon, the 13th President of Bell Labs, and Professor Marion Thain, Chair-Director of the Institute, for an engaging discussion on the potential and challenges of AI.
