The goal of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is not only to push forward the frontier of machine intelligence but also to transform how this intelligence can become the engine to drive real-world applications. The advancement made in the world of computing has enabled both industry and academia to develop advanced algorithms and complex models that are capable of imitating human brains. In this fireside conversation, we will be joined by 2018 ACM Turing Award winners, Yoshua Bengio, Geoffrey Hinton, and Yann LeCun who are the thought leaders and visionaries in AI, often referred to as godfathers of AI. Their contribution to the field of AI now underpins the proliferation of AI technologies being adopted around the world in various applications from natural language processing and medical imaging to autonomous machines. They will provide their perspective on how AI will transform various aspects of our life and how applications driven by AI will help us in solving the most pressing issues of our time.

There are tremendous commercial opportunities in using academic research to develop technologies that can solve problems in such domains as medicine, robotics & automation, logistics, and various other industries. Exploiting these opportunities, however, still requires significant innovation in hardware and software frameworks, coupled with cutting-edge academic research. The best academic literature results typically can't be directly applied to a product due to misalignment with market needs, and/or the product’s inability to repeatedly and reliably perform its function under non-ideal (real-world) conditions. Our panel comprises renowned academics who used their research skills to develop products for real-world use cases and became successful entrepreneurs. Hear about their challenges in bridging the gap between academic research and real-world products. They'll share their approaches to integrating their research into commercial products and explain the challenges they overcame on their journeys to becoming successful entrepreneurs.
Hear from some of the brightest minds in their industries.
