Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

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
Slide 14: Communication - Twitter A key part of our communication strategy is twitter and I want to say a few words on the rationale behind this. One of the greatest challenges in a project of this scale is making sure we are all aware of what we are all doing. To complex a communication system and people won’t take part, because (to use the jargon) the transaction costs are too high. To this end Twitter is an extremely simple, and quick way of announcing what you are doing, where the burden is extremely low. In fact each post (or tweet) has a maximum of 140 characters. Now I’m aware that some people might be sceptical about this strategy, and likewise I’m sure we have many twitter virgins in the audience. Thus I though it would be worth saying a few words about how to use twitter. First off people should ideally create an account in their own name. This involves going to Twitter.com and registering. Having done this there is a little box on your twitter page where you simple Tweet what you are doing in 140 characters or less. By including @vbrant in your tweet it will appear on the Vbrant website and the vbrant twitter feed. Your can go a step further by including #[1-8] for the specific workpackage that your tweet relates to. My best advice is to tweet often and based on personal experience I would encourage you to download an app. (you can get the for your mobile phone and your computer) because this makes it extremely easy to tweet.
