Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

14. Be bold
➔ My biggest lesson was to not hold back
➔ Speak your mind, ask for opportunties, try
not to be shy
➔ Its going to be uncomfortable, but often
times disomfort means growth

16. “Scope”
➔ Scope = what you’re responsbile for as a PM
➔ The more senior you get, the larger the
scope
➔ Always be thinking about how you can
expand your scope

17. Prioritization is everything
➔ This is not just a key PM skill for designing a
roadmap, but a key skill for growing your
career
➔ There’s an unlimited amount of things that
you can chase down
➔ Know what to own, delegate, and even drop
the ball on
17
18. Empowering others
➔ As you grow in scope, delegation is a
necessity
➔ Don’t think of delegation as dumping work
on others, but giving others a chance to
shine
➔ E.g giving a workstream to a new PM,
passing off team planning to engineering

20. Define your PM path
➔ PM is a really broad field, there’s a lot of
directions of focus
➔ As you learn what you’re interested in, work
closely with your manager on designing the
right path for you
➔ It’s not just about growing, but growing in
the right dierction

21. The worst you’ll get is a “no”
➔ This is one of the best tips of advice I’ve
gotten
➔ Ask for what you need – whether its
mentorship, help, or a promotion
➔ A “no” hurts a lot less than the potential
opporunity that you’re missing out on
21
22. Honest manager conversations
➔ It’s not weird to talk about promotions and
your career goals
➔ Be as direct as you can with your manager
and tell them what your promo targets are
➔ I like setting aside monthly dedicated career
growth specific checkins

24. Mentorship
➔ Mentorship is one of the most useful tools in
your career
➔ Seek out PM mentors in a variety of areas to
learn from, and prioritize mentorship time
➔ You can also learn a lot from your mentees
24
25. Learning
➔ Prioritize learning as a part of your job
➔ E.g Dale Carnegie classes on leadership,
keeping tabs on product news to stay sharp
on product sense
25
26. Iterating
➔ Its also helpful to regularly check in on how
you work and see if you can improve it
➔ Is it a slow work process that’s getting in the
way, are you finding that its hard to deliver
high stakes presentations
➔ Keep analyzing your weaknesses and finding
ways to improve
26
27. Key skills to PM growth
➔ Become an expert in your domain
➔ Don’t be afraid to offer insights and speak your mind
➔ Be an expert at prioritizing and delegating
➔ Advocate for your career and know your direction of
growth
