"The Now: More of it is coming!"

What is consciousness? Are you the same you as 5 seconds ago? Can an AI mind replicate your own? Is the universe a simulation? Big questions, yes. But fear not, Lieven Scheire is here!

Lieven Scheire is a Belgian comedian, physicist and science communicator on stage and on TV, in both Dutch and English. Lieven is the face and founder of ’Nerdland’, a popular brand in which he, alongside a group of geeky friends, brings science and technology closer to the broader public. He's also a prolific author, and has a new book called 'AI', a beginner's guide to the magic, possibilities and limitations of the Artificial Intelligence revolution.
