    Keynote / Mieke De Ketelaere - Don't fall into the chatbot trap

    The chatbot, a digital friend who listens to you and is always there for you, seems useful. But what if your AI companion is not on your side and manipulates you? Based on two years of research and real user stories, Geertrui Mieke De Ketelaere reveals how chatbots are built and what happens when the relationship goes wrong.
