Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften: AI is Changing the Game – Why Ethics Matter Now

The Lange Nacht der Wissenschaften (Long Night of the Sciences) will take place in Leipzig on June 20, 2025. At over 50 locations in the city, there will be a night of wonder, experimentation and discussion. HHL Leipzig Graduate School of Management will also be present as part of the Leipzig science family.

Are you still the one deciding what you do—or are you letting AI decide for you? Business ethicist and HHL professor Andreas Suchanek invites you to join one of the most urgent debates of our time. He explains why AI makes critical thinking both essential and difficult—and what’s at stake when ethical guidelines are missing. Get ready for a thought-provoking talk.

Join the discussion as business ethicist Andreas Suchanek highlights what’s at stake when AI makes decisions for us—live at the brand-new R42 in the heart of Leipzig.
