For our last chapter of #EmTechDigital sessions, we'll hear from AI researchers and then to close, David Ferrucci from @elementalcog will pull back the curtain on AI.
First up: @agrimgupta92 from Stanford is interested in how the form of a machine changes its ability to learn, shifting the focus away from learning algorithms operating by themselves and onto learning combined with a kind of bodily evolution. #EmTechDigital
@agrimgupta92 .@strwbilly covered how Agrim's work could unlock AI for robots late last year. #EmTechDigital technologyreview.com/2021/10/19/103…

Welcome back to day two of #EmTechDigital. Today, we are going to look at what’s new with the the algorithms that are powering our systems. Grab a virtual seat here: trib.al/YipvRIp
We’ll look at some case studies for how organizations are using AI to improve their processes, and we’ll also take some time to discuss some of the big issues surrounding equity, usage, and policy surrounding AI. #EmTechDigital
Finally, we’ll finish up the day with a session with some researchers, who are taking time away from their labs, to share some of their new ways of developing and advancing the way we think about AI. #EmTechDigital

We're back for the last #EmTechDigital chapter of the day, hosted by @StrongReporter. We'll be talking about one of the hottest things going in the field right now: generative AI.
@StrongReporter Generative AI is what we mean when we talk about creative AI or AI art--including technologies that can draw and pains or that can gather and use information to write things like articles. #EmTechDigital
@mikebhaley of @autodesk says no design problem exists by itself. And generative AI can be used to solve those problems. #EmTechDigital

Welcome to #EmTechDigital! Our signature AI conference is back, in-person and online. We'll have 30+ speakers over the next two days. Join us and grab a virtual ticket here: trib.al/YipvRIp
In our opening keynote with @AndrewYNg of @landingAI, we’re going to address a decade-old legacy, that algorithms can do remarkable things. A focus on better data promises to bring the benefits of AI to a wider range of people, and it may help make AI safer and more reliable.

#EmTechDigital is (almost) a wrap. Here are five takeaways from the artificial-intelligence conference, per @glichfield.
1-3:
1. AI that doesn’t require a lot of data (look out for this in the future)
2. How much potential there is, especially when it comes to materials discovery
3. The sheer brilliance of the people working in this field #EmTechDigital
And 4 and 5:
4. The people asking the hard questions about what all of this means for the rest of us
5. The people who have the job for heading up/being in big positions at companies like @Google and @Microsoft #EmTechDigital

1. Talking at #EmTechDigital today on 'Preparing for #Deepfakes: Trust and Truth' placing in broader framework of how we think about AI and social good. My cliffnotes here in this thread events.technologyreview.com/emtech/digital… (in great company with @red_abebe and @latonero)
2. Quick intro for those don't know @witnessorg; work on helping anyone, anywhere using video and tech for human rights. We're focused on making you more effective, ethical and safe if you do. And that means also keeping eye out for emerging tech threats witness.org
3. Big emerging tech threats we're concerned about now are: #AI at intersection with #disinformation, #media manipulation and rising #authoritarianism. We know this is where the rubber hits the road for activists and civic witnesses on the ground.
