SUMMARY:Our Changing Climate
DESCRIPTION:VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENTAL TALK: Professor of Biological and Environmental Sciences Dr. Mitch Wagener will discuss “Our Changing Climate” in a virtual talk hosted by the Danbury Library at 6:30 p.m. Climate change is the greatest challenge we face and will be our grandchildren’s challenge as well. In a warmer world\, weather events will be more severe\, sea levels higher\, and people will be displaced. It is a serious situation\, which we must meet with both our heads and our hearts. But there is hope. The study of climate change is developing very quickly. Significant new information is coming out — literally — every day. This talk will explain the basics\, but also mix in some of this new information giving us a better understanding of the world and our future. For ages 16+. Registration begins 9/7/2021 at 8 a.m. This is a virtual program. Participants will receive a ZOOM link to the program via email once they have registered.

SUMMARY:Bot Shop (Media Literacy Week Presentations)
DESCRIPTION:BOT SHOP (MEDIA LITERACY WEEK PRESENTATIONS): Who said that?! With increase use of artificial intelligence (AI) and chatbots\, sometimes the answer isn’t a “who\,” but rather a “what”. Learn about the history of chatbots and representations of A.I. in popular cinema with WCSU Communications and Media Arts professor\, Dr. Eric Stewart\, at 2 p.m.. Stewart will also discuss the current use and future implications of non-human actors in Hollywood and video games. His 45-minute presentation will be followed by a hands-on workshop in developing chatbots to create an interactive scene based off main characters from original student scripts using the open source scripting language\, RiveScript. \nJoin us at the Haas Library or online for this fascinating talk and workshop on artificial intelligence and chatbots in pop culture and their potential implications in real life.
