MAKING AI WORK FOR REAL
Whether it’s voice recognition on our phones or auto-tagging of
friends’ faces on social media posts, AI is in use all around us.
Many futurists have forecast that “movie AI” will take over, but we
somehow seem far from that. This talk will provide a view of the
challenges and solutions needed as AI progresses - from
computational improvements to accountability, fairness, and bias
considerations for AI creation and deployment. Cutting edge
research will be highlighted in each of these areas and we’ll talk
about how the IBM-Illinois C3SR Center for Cognitive Computing
Systems Research is making AI work.
