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.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
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.
Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Fonts
Colour
Background
Graphs
Spelling and Grammar
Conclusions
Questions
3. Outline
Make
your 1st or 2nd slide an outline of your
presentation
–
Ex: previous slide
Follow
the order of your outline for the rest of
the presentation
Only place main points on the outline slide
–
Ex: Use the titles of each slide as main points
4. Slide Structure – Good
Use
1-2 slides per minute of your presentation
Write in point form, not complete sentences
Include 4-5 points per slide
Avoid wordiness: use key words and phrases
only
5. Slide Structure - Bad
This
page contains too many words for a
presentation slide. It is not written in point
form, making it difficult both for your audience
to read and for you to present each point.
Although there are exactly the same number of
points on this slide as the previous slide, it
looks much more complicated. In short, your
audience will spend too much time trying to
read this paragraph instead of listening to you.
6. Slide Structure – Good
Show
–
–
–
one point at a time:
Will help audience concentrate on what you are
saying
Will prevent audience from reading ahead
Will help you keep your presentation focused
7. Slide Structure - Bad
Do
not use distracting animation
Do
not go overboard with the animation
Be
consistent with the animation that you use
8. Fonts - Good
Use
at least an 18-point font
Use different size fonts for main points and
secondary points
–
this font is 24-point, the main point font is 28-point,
and the title font is 36-point
Use
Arial
a standard font like Times New Roman or
9. Fonts - Bad
If you use a small font, your audience won’t be able to read what you have written
CAPITALIZE
ONLY WHEN NECESSARY. IT
IS DIFFICULT TO READ
Don’t use a complicated font
10. Colour - Good
Use
a colour of font that contrasts sharply with
the background
–
Ex: blue font on white background
Use
colour to reinforce the logic of your
structure
–
Ex: light blue title and dark blue text
Use
–
colour to emphasize a point
But only use this occasionally
11. Colour - Bad
Using
a font colour that does not contrast with
the background colour is hard to read
Using colour for decoration is distracting and
annoying.
Using a different colour for each point is
unnecessary
–
Using a different colour for secondary points is also
unnecessary
Trying
to be creative can also be bad
12. Background - Good
Use
backgrounds such as this one that are
attractive but simple
Use
Use
backgrounds which are light
the same background consistently
throughout your presentation
13. Background – Bad
Avoid
backgrounds that are distracting or
difficult to read from
Always be consistent with the background that
you use
14. Graphs - Good
Use
–
–
graphs rather than just charts and words
Data in graphs is easier to comprehend & retain
than is raw data
Trends are easier to visualize in graph form
Always
title your graphs
15. Graphs - Bad
