What makes the brain "evil"?

These days, crime novels and thrillers dominate the bestseller lists and crime podcasts are very popular. But what is behind this fascination? What biological, psychological and technological factors contribute to people committing 'evil' acts? The human psyche is multifaceted and it is difficult to understand how certain personality traits, social influences and environmental factors can influence behavior. This also raises the question of what role technologies and artificial intelligence play in moral decision-making processes and ethical considerations. Bestselling author Sebastian Fitzek, Anna Puzio, researcher in AI ethics at the University of Twente, Matthias Beck, university professor of theological ethics, and Carina Zehetmaier, President of Women in AI Austria, will discuss this topic.
