Simone Puorto. 2024 Odissea nel Travel Il Ruolo della GenAI nell’Universo Tur...Simone Puorto
La discussione inizia con un'attenta esplorazione del ruolo della GenAI nel fornire raccomandazioni di viaggio iper-personalizzate, adattando gli itinerari per corrispondere alle preferenze individuali e ai modelli di dati storici. Inoltre, si addentra nella competenza della GenAI nel superare le barriere linguistiche, offrendo servizi di traduzione in tempo reale che migliorano la comunicazione e l'immersione culturale per i viaggiatori internazionali. Lo speech prosegue svelando il settore emergente delle esperienze di turismo virtuale, potenziate dalla GenAI, che permettono ai turisti di esplorare destinazioni attraverso simulazioni vivide prima delle loro visite effettive. Questo segmento sottolinea il potenziale di queste tecnologie di democratizzare il viaggio e offrire alternative sostenibili al turismo tradizionale. Inoltre, la presentazione evidenzia come la determinazione dinamica dei prezzi guidata dalla GenAI possa ottimizzare la redditività per i fornitori di servizi assicurando al contempo costi competitivi ed equi per i consumatori. Nel dominio del customer care, la presentazione dettaglia i modi in cui la GenAI può fornire un supporto superiore, disponibile 24 ore su 24, rispondendo alle richieste con un'efficienza e una precisione senza pari. Il relatore discuterà anche delle implicazioni di questi avanzamenti per l'occupazione e le competenze richieste nel panorama turistico in evoluzione. Lo speech mira a fornire una visione equilibrata, considerando non solo le opportunità, ma anche le considerazioni etiche e le sfide poste dall'integrazione della GenAI nel turismo, in un futuro in cui la GenAI agisce come catalizzatore per creare esperienze di viaggio più inclusive, personalizzate e sostenibili, rivoluzionando l'industria in modi che stiamo solo iniziando a comprendere.

2024: A Travel Odyssey The Role of Generative AI in the Tourism UniverseSimone Puorto
This presentation examines how Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) is reshaping the travel sector. It discusses how AI-driven personalization offers unique travel suggestions, such as accommodations, activities, and dining, tailored to individual preferences. The speech also highlights AI's role in breaking language barriers making international travel more accessible through advanced translation tools. Another aspect is Meta-Travel, where GenAI, combined with Extended Reality, creates virtual previews of destinations. The talk also covers AI's influence on revenue and yield management through dynamic pricing models and its application in customer support with round-the-clock AI chatbots. The overall theme of the speech is the transformative potential of GenAI in travel, enhancing planning, experiences, sustainability, and safety. It underscores how this technology can lead to personalized, enriching journeys, marking a new era in travel innovation and exploration.
I Quit. Next Steps to Take When Blinded by the Market.David Aferiat
The first wave of Big Data focused on the insight possible from the enormous amount of data our actions generate. The second wave will focus on how such insight leads to automated decisions. This presentation describes how Trade Ideas is riding this trend for better decisions when trading in the markets.
The increased availability of biomedical data, particularly in the public domain, offers the opportunity to better understand human health and to develop effective therapeutics for a wide range of unmet medical needs. However, data scientists remain stymied by the fact that data remain hard to find and to productively reuse because data and their metadata i) are wholly inaccessible, ii) are in non-standard or incompatible representations, iii) do not conform to community standards, and iv) have unclear or highly restricted terms and conditions that preclude legitimate reuse. These limitations require a rethink on data can be made machine and AI-ready - the key motivation behind the FAIR Guiding Principles. Concurrently, while recent efforts have explored the use of deep learning to fuse disparate data into predictive models for a wide range of biomedical applications, these models often fail even when the correct answer is already known, and fail to explain individual predictions in terms that data scientists can appreciate. These limitations suggest that new methods to produce practical artificial intelligence are still needed.
In this talk, I will discuss our work in (1) building an integrative knowledge infrastructure to prepare FAIR and "AI-ready" data and services along with (2) neurosymbolic AI methods to improve the quality of predictions and to generate plausible explanations. Attention is given to standards, platforms, and methods to wrangle knowledge into simple, but effective semantic and latent representations, and to make these available into standards-compliant and discoverable interfaces that can be used in model building, validation, and explanation. Our work, and those of others in the field, creates a baseline for building trustworthy and easy to deploy AI models in biomedicine.

Richard's aventures in two entangled wonderlandsRichard Gill
Since the loophole-free Bell experiments of 2020 and the Nobel prizes in physics of 2022, critics of Bell's work have retreated to the fortress of super-determinism. Now, super-determinism is a derogatory word - it just means "determinism". Palmer, Hance and Hossenfelder argue that quantum mechanics and determinism are not incompatible, using a sophisticated mathematical construction based on a subtle thinning of allowed states and measurements in quantum mechanics, such that what is left appears to make Bell's argument fail, without altering the empirical predictions of quantum mechanics. I think however that it is a smoke screen, and the slogan "lost in math" comes to my mind. I will discuss some other recent disproofs of Bell's theorem using the language of causality based on causal graphs. Causal thinking is also central to law and justice. I will mention surprising connections to my work on serial killer nurse cases, in particular the Dutch case of Lucia de Berk and the current UK case of Lucy Letby.
Observation of Io’s Resurfacing via Plume Deposition Using Ground-based Adapt...Sérgio Sacani
Since volcanic activity was first discovered on Io from Voyager images in 1979, changes
on Io’s surface have been monitored from both spacecraft and ground-based telescopes.
Here, we present the highest spatial resolution images of Io ever obtained from a groundbased telescope. These images, acquired by the SHARK-VIS instrument on the Large
Binocular Telescope, show evidence of a major resurfacing event on Io’s trailing hemisphere. When compared to the most recent spacecraft images, the SHARK-VIS images
show that a plume deposit from a powerful eruption at Pillan Patera has covered part
of the long-lived Pele plume deposit. Although this type of resurfacing event may be common on Io, few have been detected due to the rarity of spacecraft visits and the previously low spatial resolution available from Earth-based telescopes. The SHARK-VIS instrument ushers in a new era of high resolution imaging of Io’s surface using adaptive
optics at visible wavelengths.
THE IMPORTANCE OF MARTIAN ATMOSPHERE SAMPLE RETURN.Sérgio Sacani
The return of a sample of near-surface atmosphere from Mars would facilitate answers to several first-order science questions surrounding the formation and evolution of the planet. One of the important aspects of terrestrial planet formation in general is the role that primary atmospheres played in influencing the chemistry and structure of the planets and their antecedents. Studies of the martian atmosphere can be used to investigate the role of a primary atmosphere in its history. Atmosphere samples would also inform our understanding of the near-surface chemistry of the planet, and ultimately the prospects for life. High-precision isotopic analyses of constituent gases are needed to address these questions, requiring that the analyses are made on returned samples rather than in situ.
Multi-source connectivity as the driver of solar wind variability in the heli...Sérgio Sacani
The ambient solar wind that flls the heliosphere originates from multiple
sources in the solar corona and is highly structured. It is often described
as high-speed, relatively homogeneous, plasma streams from coronal
holes and slow-speed, highly variable, streams whose source regions are
under debate. A key goal of ESA/NASA’s Solar Orbiter mission is to identify
solar wind sources and understand what drives the complexity seen in the
heliosphere. By combining magnetic feld modelling and spectroscopic
techniques with high-resolution observations and measurements, we show
that the solar wind variability detected in situ by Solar Orbiter in March
2022 is driven by spatio-temporal changes in the magnetic connectivity to
multiple sources in the solar atmosphere. The magnetic feld footpoints
connected to the spacecraft moved from the boundaries of a coronal hole
to one active region (12961) and then across to another region (12957). This
is refected in the in situ measurements, which show the transition from fast
to highly Alfvénic then to slow solar wind that is disrupted by the arrival of
a coronal mass ejection. Our results describe solar wind variability at 0.5 au
but are applicable to near-Earth observatories.
