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.

Editor's Notes
Note down the link to get hold if these slides and more later. SEO is just a part of Online Marketing. SEO is focused on getting a good Google position. Making your website work for you covers a lot more than that.
A lot of people who have websites that just gather dust. If you make your website work for you then you will get return on your investment.
These are just estimates. A top ranking website gets around 7,000 Australian visits per month from Google
Let’s work out what the final goals are first then work back to find out how to achieve them
It’s not being #1, having a cool website, to tell people how great you are. Left: primary goals. Right: secondary goals.
Some of the main ways to reach your goals.
Personas. Demographics (age, affluence, interests, location…). Put yourself in their shoes.
Information they want. How to find out.
No difference then price is the decider. Have to state why your service is the best. Free shipping. Guarantee. Brand awareness. What value added services are you not telling people – free coffee.
Do you exist? Business name, phone number, address, abn. Unknowns: freight, in stock, secure…
Call To Actions: Buy Now, Call. Incentives: Time limits, bonuses, while stock lasts. Concerns: Shipping Price, Privacy, Delivery Times, Guarantee, Support, Payment Options. Trust: You exist, Secure Badges, Privacy.
Outreach. Social: Forums, Q&A, Signatures.
Causes Traffic. Reputation Management. Branding. Author, Friend based Ranking.
Universal Search. 33% click on top organic listing, few on adverts. Enhanced listings (top organic has address). Organic: based on merit.
Localised results.
Google AdWords. AdWords Express (Places) has poor results. Facebook has good demographic control.
I’ve covered what you need to do already. This is SEO. It takes time. Target what you can get (low hanging fruit).
Typos. Broken links.
Search Result Emulator. Redirect Generator. PageRank Checker. 404 Checker.
Complex features may require custom. Avoid custom if you can.
DIY: own time, own skills.
301 redirects.
When checking your ranking, watch out.
Strengthen keywords that already cause traffic. Places, directory listing.
