The narrator Brooklyn wakes up to the smell of smoke from a fire caused by a burnt microwave meal after falling asleep reading. She sees flames and black smoke blocking the door. Her horse Ace, which she had trained to respond to commands, alerts her by making noise and moves haystacks under her window as trained. She escapes the fire by jumping out the window into the haystacks. Ace's training saves her life.

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.
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.

1. The Horse Who Saved My Life
‘ I woke up with a start and smelled smoke. It smelled horrible, like melted
paint and scorched wood. I looked down on the floor and found out that the crash
was coming from the alarm clock smashing into a million pieces. I knew that there
was a fire, because I looked out the window and saw flames. I couldn't understand
why there was a fire. But after a few minutes, I knew why.’
My name is Brooklyn. My life has been a normal, boring life but when I was
11, I had an incident that changed my life forever.
I have curly red hair with a spatter of freckles on my face. My favorite color is
pink, and my room is full of pink things, for example pink bedsheets, pink lava
lamps, pink computer covers and definitely pink carpets. When I was nine, I got my
first pet as a present: a horse. My horse had brown silky fur and it had a star on it's
forehead. It was beautiful. I named it Ace.
From that day on, I rode Ace everyday after school. I fell down about a million
times and even broke my arm once because I guess he didn’t like people riding on
him, but I never gave up and kept on riding him until he was a really good runner
and he was used to me on his back. I even trained him to jump over obstacles. I
trained him to move haystacks under my window in case there was an emergency,
so I can jump safely out of the house. Every time I train him, I have a small treat for
Nicole R. May 19th 2013
2. him, but I can't let him know that or else he will come to get the treat without
jumping over the obstacle. We became best friends.
One day, I was sitting in my room enjoying a hot homemade fudge sundae
while reading Harry Potter - The Deathly Hallows. I hadn't had lunch yet, so I
popped a couple of frozen hot dogs in the (yes, pink) microwave and turned it on.
This was the first time I ever used the microwave so I had no clue how long I should
set the time for. I set an alarm clock for 15 minutes until I needed to get the hot
dogs out and put it on my desk. My parents weren't here because they went on a
business trip. I fell asleep while reading the book with the bowl in my hands. I
slapped the book on the table and heard a crash but I didn't bother to look at what it
was, because I was too sleepy. I slept for about an hour until I heard loud thumping
and whinnying. It was coming from Ace. I woke up with a start and smelled smoke.
It smelled horrible, like melted paint and scorched wood. I looked down on the floor
and found out that the crash was coming from the alarm clock smashing into a
million pieces. I knew that there was a fire, because I looked out the window and
saw flames. I couldn't understand why there was a fire. But after a few minutes, I
knew why. Remember how I had a couple of hot dogs in the microwave and I set
the alarm for fifteen minutes? The alarm clock broke because I slammed my book
on the desk. Now the hot dogs are burnt, and they were on fire.
I panicked and started for the door. Then, I saw black smoke coming out of
the door and I found out that there was no way out. I sat on my bed, helplessly
crying and choking... Then I saw Ace and I had an idea. I flung open the
Nicole R. May 19th 2013
3. window, didn’t care if it crashed on the grass and shouted, "Ace! Move the
haystacks!"
I snapped my fingers and pointed at the haystacks next to him. He moved all
the haystacks very quickly, and I jumped out of the window into the haystacks. I fell
right into them and I was buried in the hay. When I got out, the first thing I did was
to fling my arms around Ace, and sobbed. If he didn't make the noise, I never would
have woken up, and I could've died in the fire. Then, I whipped out my cellphone
and called my mom. She was so glad about the part where I was okay, apart from a
couple of scratches and bruises from jumping down, but she wasn't that happy
about the house being burnt. Next, they gave Ace a great big hug and a few sugar
cubes. I smiled. He definitely deserved them.
We had to live in my godmother’s house for a few weeks until my parents
found a smaller but comfortable house. When my parents settled in the other
house, I went into the kitchen and took some honey out to the stables. And for the
next time I needed to heat something, I would ask for my parents to tell me when
the timers up.
Training time!
