Come Xplore the fundamental insight powering "Silicon Valley's Next Billion-Dollar Company" (TechCrunch) and "The War on Terror's Secret Weapon" (BusinessWeek):
Computers Will [Not] Take Over the World: but will help us save it.
According to Palantir senior engineer & big data expert, Ari Gesher, the most powerful systems will be those that augment human intelligence, not attempt to recreate it.
Join us for a talk about:
- How humans and computers working in collaboration can outperform any computer in existence
- How artificial intelligence wrongfully hijacked the technology world for almost 15 years
- A number of complex real-world problems where the only solution is human-computer symbiosis, because automation fails
- How Peter Thiel-backed Palantir Technologies built a Java-based human-computer collaboration system that is being used by government agencies, large financial institutions and police departments around the globe
