Wie beeinflusst KI unsere Bildung? Dieser Workshop geht weniger um KI selbst als um Bildung in einer Welt mit KI. Wir hinterfragen Narrative, diskutieren ethische Herausforderungen und analysieren die Perspektive von Studierenden. Ziel ist es, Ansätze für eine reflektierte und resiliente Bildungspraxis zu entwickeln.

Die Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) ist in aller Munde, und doch scheint sie nicht richtig fassbar. Wo wird die KI eingesetzt, wird sie uns helfen, effizienter oder produktiver zu werden, oder wird sie auf die gleiche Stelle wie der Mensch gesetzt? Sarah Rochat hat in Robotik, Mathematik und Psychologie geforscht und berichtet über Fakten, Chancen und Herausforderungen der KI.

Les récits sur l’intelligence artificielle et la robotique sont souvent accompagnés de démonstrations spectaculaires, de vidéos virales et d’annonces de « ruptures » qui donnent l’impression d’une technologie se déployant d’elle-même à un rythme effréné. Dans cette présentation, j’argumente que cette mise en scène vise à occulter les choix sociaux, économiques et politiques qui orientent les développements technologiques et à les exclure ainsi du débat public. À partir de l’exemple de la robotique humanoïde, souvent présentée comme une solution naturelle à la crise des soins, j’analyse comment les rhétoriques d’innovation dominantes contribuent à dévaloriser et à invisibiliser le travail vivant, donnant l’impression que son automatisation est non seulement possible, mais aussi désirable. Je termine en argumentant que la mise en lumière des rapports de force, des mécanismes d’exclusion et des impacts à long terme renforcés par ces rhétoriques est nécessaire pour rétablir un débat démocratique sur le développement technologique et l’innovation.

Join us for a workshop exploring the role of humanoid robots in the Swiss workplace. By engaging in discussions on the socio-technical dimensions of robotics, this workshop aims to create a space for reflection on the future of work we want to create. Together, we will examine the respective roles of humans and technology in this future, as well as the opportunities, challenges, and responsibilities of researchers, industry, and society.

Humanoid robots are entering industrial workplaces, raising fundamental questions about the future of work. This panel explores how humanoids will reshape industry, human roles, and collaboration. Are they tools, teammates or competitors – and how can industry integrate them in a human-centric way?
