As we begin to harness the power of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data science in our everyday lives, we also raise complex ethical and social questions associated with bias, fairness, and transparency of algorithmic intelligence. In this panel we get into the thick of the issue. How can we best use AI with shared responsibilities between humans and systems? How can we balance the need for efficiency and exploration with fairness and sensitivity to users? How do we ensure that individuals and communities can trust these systems? Join our discussion to enrich your understanding of human-AI interaction, and how these questions will be answered in AI research, education and policies, as we strive to improve the human condition.
Technology for everyone - AI ethics and BiasMarion Mulder
Slides from my talk at #ToonTechTalks on 27 september 2018
We all see the great potential AI is bringing us. But is it really bringing it to everyone? How are we ensuring under-represented groups are included and vulnerable people are protected? What to do when our technology is unintended biased and discriminating against certain groups. And what if the data and AI is correct, but the by-effect of it is that some groups are put at risk? All questions we need to think about when we are advancing technology for the benefit of humanity.
Sharing what I've learned from my work in diversity, digital and from following great minds in this field such as Joanna Bryson, Virginia Dignum, Rumman Chowdhury, Juriaan van Diggelen, Valerie Frissen, Catelijne Muller, and many more.
Deep Learning - The Past, Present and Future of Artificial IntelligenceLukas Masuch
In the last couple of years, deep learning techniques have transformed the world of artificial intelligence. One by one, the abilities and techniques that humans once imagined were uniquely our own have begun to fall to the onslaught of ever more powerful machines. Deep neural networks are now better than humans at tasks such as face recognition and object recognition. They’ve mastered the ancient game of Go and thrashed the best human players. “The pace of progress in artificial general intelligence is incredible fast” (Elon Musk – CEO Tesla & SpaceX) leading to an AI that “would be either the best or the worst thing ever to happen to humanity” (Stephen Hawking – Physicist).
What sparked this new hype? How is Deep Learning different from previous approaches? Let’s look behind the curtain and unravel the reality. This talk will introduce the core concept of deep learning, explore why Sundar Pichai (CEO Google) recently announced that “machine learning is a core transformative way by which Google is rethinking everything they are doing” and explain why “deep learning is probably one of the most exciting things that is happening in the computer industry“ (Jen-Hsun Huang – CEO NVIDIA).

Artificial Intelligence is increasingly playing an integral role in determining our day-to-day experiences. Moreover, with proliferation of AI based solutions in areas such as hiring, lending, criminal justice, healthcare, and education, the resulting personal and professional implications of AI are far-reaching. The dominant role played by AI models in these domains has led to a growing concern regarding potential bias in these models, and a demand for model transparency and interpretability. In addition, model explainability is a prerequisite for building trust and adoption of AI systems in high stakes domains requiring reliability and safety such as healthcare and automated transportation, and critical industrial applications with significant economic implications such as predictive maintenance, exploration of natural resources, and climate change modeling.
As a consequence, AI researchers and practitioners have focused their attention on explainable AI to help them better trust and understand models at scale. The challenges for the research community include (i) defining model explainability, (ii) formulating explainability tasks for understanding model behavior and developing solutions for these tasks, and finally (iii) designing measures for evaluating the performance of models in explainability tasks.
In this tutorial, we present an overview of model interpretability and explainability in AI, key regulations / laws, and techniques / tools for providing explainability as part of AI/ML systems. Then, we focus on the application of explainability techniques in industry, wherein we present practical challenges / guidelines for effectively using explainability techniques and lessons learned from deploying explainable models for several web-scale machine learning and data mining applications. We present case studies across different companies, spanning application domains such as search & recommendation systems, hiring, sales, and lending. Finally, based on our experiences in industry, we identify open problems and research directions for the data mining / machine learning community.

The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has progressed rapidly in the past few years. AI systems are having a growing impact on society and concerns have been raised whether AI system can be trusted. A way to address these concerns is to employ ethically aligned design principles to the development of AI software. Yet these principles are still far away from practical application. This talk provides state-of-the-art empirical insight into what should researchers and professionals do today when the client wants ethics to be added to their system.

The Future of AI is Generative not Discriminative 5/26/2021Steve Omohundro
The deep learning AI revolution has been sweeping the world for a decade now. Deep neural nets are routinely used for tasks like translation, fraud detection, and image classification. PwC estimates that they will create $15.7 trillion/year of value by 2030. But most current networks are "discriminative" in that they directly map inputs to predictions. This type of model requires lots of training examples, doesn't generalize well outside of its training set, creates inscrutable representations, is subject to adversarial examples, and makes knowledge transfer difficult. People, in contrast, can learn from just a few examples, generalize far beyond their experience, and can easily transfer and reuse knowledge. In recent years, new kinds of "generative" AI models have begun to exhibit these desirable human characteristics. They represent the causal generative processes by which the data is created and can be compositional, compact, and directly interpretable. Generative AI systems that assist people can model their needs and desires and interact with empathy. Their adaptability to changing circumstances will likely be required by rapidly changing AI-driven business and social systems. Generative AI will be the engine of future AI innovation.

The Future of Humanity
Through our interaction with machines, we develop emotional, human expectations of them. Alexa, for example, comes alive when we speak with it. AI is and will be a representation of its cultural context, the values and ethics we apply to one another as humans.
This machinery is eerily familiar as it mirrors us, and eventually becomes even smarter than us mere mortals. We’re programming its advantages based on how we see ourselves and the world around us, and we’re doing this at an incredible pace. This shift is pervading culture from our perceptions of beauty and aesthetics to how we interact with one another – and our AI.
Infused with technology, we’re asking: what does it means to be human?
Our report examines:
• The evolution of our empathy from humans to animals and robots
• How we treat AI in its infancy like we do a child, allowing it space to grow
• The spectrum of our emotional comfort in a world embracing AI
• The cultural contexts fueling AI biases, such as gender stereotypes, that drive the direction of AI
• How we place an innate trust in machines, more than we do one another
Methodology
For this report, sparks & honey conducted US-focused research on the future of AI. Together with Heartbeat AI Technologies, we examined the emotional sentiment (feeling and emotions) around artificial intelligence in a Heartbeat AI Pulse Survey of 150 people in the US. Tapping into our Influencer Advisory Board and proprietary cultural intelligence system, we combed through thousands of signals to build a vision of the future of AI. We also interviewed leading experts in the field of artificial intelligence.
Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are undergoing revolutionary changes that will affect wide swaths of our society. And the applications of this technology are increasingly diverse. Join us as we narrow in on how researchers in AL and ML are using AWS to identify and prevent financial market manipulation in a high-volume, high-velocity stock market. We also explore how to use natural language processing to aid emergency response organizations in real time during deadly disasters, such as during hurricanes and catastrophic wildfires.

The Ethics of Artificial Intelligence in Digital Ecosystemswashikmaryam
The ethics of AI go beyond just the technology itself. When we consider AI within the complex web of digital platforms and services (the digital ecosystem), new ethical concerns arise.
A big focus is on how AI decisions can be biased, reflecting the data it's trained on and potentially leading to discrimination. We also need to be mindful of privacy issues and how AI might be used to manipulate users.
To ensure ethical AI in digital ecosystems, we need to consider these potential pitfalls during development and use frameworks to make responsible choices. This includes reflecting on the decision-making process and how AI can be used for good.
Establishing a Culture of Innovation at AWS Cloud Innovation CentersAmazon Web Services
Customers often ask us how they can innovate like Amazon. From its humble beginnings as a startup in a garage, Amazon has not only innovated across e-commerce, but also introduced new businesses that, at first glance, don't seem to fit the model. Over the years, Amazon has gotten very good at taking hard problems and finding an easier way. We will describe how we use this mental model and mechanisms to help innovate in the Public Sector with the Cloud Innovation Center (CICs) Program. We discuss how Amazon organizes for innovation with its mechanisms, architecture, culture, and organization. As an update from previous years, our customers, Cal Polytechnic University and now Arizona State University, will exhibit initiatives currently underway at their CIC that are powered by AWS.

Leveraging Earth Observations and Cloud Technology for Global Sustainable Dev...Amazon Web Services
Global sustainable development seeks to promote prosperity while protecting the planet. Earth observations play an important role in monitoring targets, tracking progress, and helping nations and stakeholders make informed decisions. However, this data is not always easily accessible and users may not have the compute power necessary to take advantage of these resources through their own on-premises data centers. The recently launched Amazon Sustainability Data Initiative significantly reduces the cost, time, and technical barriers associated with analyzing large datasets to generate sustainability insights. In this session, we will hear from the Radiant.Earth Foundation, the Group on Earth Observation and Digital Earth Africa on ways Earth observations and AWS cloud technology are supporting governments, NGOs, businesses, and individuals to make more informed decisions and manage challenges such as climate change, soil and coastal erosion, deforestation, desertification, and water scarcity.

Nonprofit organizations can use data to help communities and funders better understand their work. But how do you know which data to use? And where do you find it? And critically: once you have data to share, how can you use it to tell a story about your organization?
TechSoup is collaborating with DataCommons.org and Tech Impact’s Data Innovation Lab to help answer these questions. We know that organizing the data you need in a meaningful way can be difficult, especially if the data comes from many different places. In this webinar, you will learn how DataCommons.org helps to address this challenge, and how we are working together to make it as easy as possible for small organizations to use public data to share stories about their work and impact.
With advancements in cloud-based technologies, we are closer to translating basic scientific research into novel therapeutic strategies. This session will emphasize AWS Architectures for Biomedical Research through the stories of two institutes making waves in the research world. The National Institute of Health will discuss their Science and Technology Research Infrastructure for Discovery, Experimentation, and Sustainability (STRIDES) Initiative to accelerate new biomedical discoveries by providing a cloud-based platform to store, share, access, and compute on digital objects. Next, the Gabriella Miller Kids First Pediatric Research Program will explore how researchers uncover new insights into the biology of childhood cancer and structural birth defects -- as well as Observational Health Data Sciences and Informatics (OHDSI) solutions. Their mission through the OHDSI is to improve health by empowering communities through large-scale analytics of observational health data using AWS CloudFormation, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Amazon Aurora PostgreSQL, and Amazon Comprehend Medical. Join us to learn more.
Learn to identify use cases for machine learning (ML), acquire best practices to frame problems in a way that key stakeholders and senior management can understand and support, and help create the right conditions for delivering successful ML-based solutions to your business.
An expanding and expansive view of computing researchNAVER Engineering
My recent service for five years as the Assistant Director of the US National Science Foundation leading the Directorate of Computer and Information Science and Engineering has afforded me a broad view of computing research and education. The field of computing is in the midst of another “golden age” and is also at another nexus point – a point of change – where future research directions, and new ways in which research will be done, are coming into focus.
In this talk we will discuss these current and future CS research topics and trends, placing them in the context of the longer-term evolution of our field. We will also discuss computer science education (at several levels), as well as the forces that promise to disrupt not just computer science education, but higher education more broadly.
