Towards Dubai 2020 Connecting Minds, Creating the Future. Education and 'Artificial Intelligence'

What has human education became compared to the pressing digitalization of daily life? The close relationship that people have with technological devices equipped with advanced functions requires a new and deep, multi-level and transdisciplinary reflection. Dealing with great potential and inevitable risks, ethical-educational responsibilities and pedagogical guidelines are relevant. The relationship between human education and radical technologies must be based on a critical view, a policy and a proper plan aiming the care for the common home. The emblematic issues of technological innovation and sustainability also represent the theme of the World Expo in Dubai (1 October 2021 - 31 March 2022). Connecting Minds, Creating the Future: an ‘authentic’ culture of scientific and technological research is based on the educational processes and creative dynamism that identify innovation as the space of experience for generating horizons of action for a sustainable and integral development of humanity.
