Lustrum: Interview with Sir Nick Clegg, President, Global Affairs, Meta

From Deputy PM of the UK to President, Global Affairs, Meta, Sir Nick Clegg has bridged the gap between politics and tech for years. With all of Meta’s businesses, including Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and now the Metaverse under his purview, he is tasked with overseeing some of the most complex policy issues across the internet. With constant changes in the world of tech and an ever-changing threat landscape ranging from misinformation to deepfakes, it’s fair to say that his job is tough.

As the era of Generative-AI begins, the question remains if society is up for the task of separating the real from the artificial. In 2024, with billions worldwide going to the polls, political tensions and theatre online will put Clegg’s position to the test. On the 11th of March, Room for Discussion will be kicking off its 15-year anniversary with an interview with Sir Clegg from 14:00 – 15:00. Join us, for an eyAI-opening conversation on these issues and more!
