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.

In this talk, we will explore Smithy and Smithy Ruby to learn how to generate custom feature-rich SDKs that can communicate with any web service, such as a Rails JSON API.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024

As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
DevOps and Testing slides at DASA ConnectKari Kakkonen
My and Rik Marselis slides at 30.5.2024 DASA Connect conference. We discuss about what is testing, then what is agile testing and finally what is Testing in DevOps. Finally we had lovely workshop with the participants trying to find out different ways to think about quality and testing in different parts of the DevOps infinity loop.

1. Every day, almost nine out of ten Norwegians consume media from “the BBC of Norway” or NRK. Also known as the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation, this radio and television provider is the largest media house in the country and is run by the government. Headquartered in Oslo, NRK has approximately 3,500 employees. Their website (NRK.no) offers both radio and television services.
About four years ago, NRK began to improve the way people consume radio and television on the web. To do so, they needed to push data from four legacy systems. This included data like title, description, rights, hosts, locations, and multiple pieces of time information for over one million programs. Each day, thousands of content updates take place on some of the 30,000 television and 82,000 radio shows online. According to Erlend Wiig, NRK Software Engineer, “To connect a group of older systems and a new database serving the web, messaging was clearly the answer. Open-source middleware provided a great solution from a budget perspective, but we also needed a tool
we could trust and find support when needed.”
CHALLENGE
Implementing a Flexible, Open-Source Messaging Architecture
NRK needed an intelligent way to create a loosely coupled architecture and allow for system adaptation in the future. They weren’t just looking for high-performance throughput. Since source systems could be updated many times, they also wanted a persistent messaging store to keep track of changes as well as a way to track failures and reprocess them. NRK looked at Microsoft Message Queuing (MSMQ) and Windows Azure Service Bus, but chose RabbitMQ because it had a proven track record, a solid open-source community, and a way to get commercial support. They also knew that RabbitMQ was written in Erlang (a robust, distribution-centric language for a messaging runtime) and backed by Pivotal – a leading provider of

OVERVIEW
“ We are fans of distributed architectures, and loosely coupling components provides for significant gains when systems evolve and change. This is why placing a message queue like RabbitMQ within the heart of our architecture made sense.”
