It can write, draw, and think with us, but can we truly trust it?

Generative AI is transforming how we learn, create, and communicate, yet behind its brilliance lie complex questions of bias, privacy, and ethics. This talk delves into the unseen side of GenAI: its limitations, vulnerabilities, and the delicate balance between innovation and integrity. Drawing on insights from academia and industry, it explores how we can use these tools responsibly while preserving human judgment and accountability.

The session will close with a Q&A: an invitation to think critically, act consciously, and shape a future balanced with technology and humanity.

This lecture is a part of Azim Premji University’s Public Lecture Series.
