VP for Strategic Initiatives & Outreach, SCSU Florian Carle Managing Director, Yale Quantum Institute Matthew Enjalran Professor of Physics, SCSU Rye Howard-Stone Lecturer of Contemporary Issues in Computer Science and Engineering, UConn Sarah M. Roe (moderator) Director, Research Center on Values in Emerging Science and Technology, SCSU The panel will be followed by a reception to continue the conversation. As quantum technology advances rapidly, it is crucial to consider its ethical implications. While quantum applications hold the potential to transform industries, they also pose significant moral challenges. Quantum computers, for instance, could dismantle current encryption methods, jeopardizing data privacy and cybersecurity. Their ability to solve complex problems at unprecedented speeds might create unfair advantages in sectors like finance or defense, further deepening existing inequalities. By addressing these ethical concerns early, we can ensure that quantum technology develops in ways that uphold fairness, privacy, and security for all. Join us for a discussion hosted by the Research Center on Values in Emerging Science and Technology and the Yale Quantum Institute, with co-sponsorship Details
