Machine learning and artificial intelligence are in the limelight because of their potential to change the way we interact. Florida State University will host his 2023 Machine Learning Expo (MLX23) to explore the latest applications of machine learning and AI from FSU researchers.
The expo will be held at the Jim Moran Building in downtown Tallahassee on Saturday, April 22, from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm and will be presented by FSU’s Interdisciplinary Data Science Master’s Degree Program (IDS).
Gordon Erlebacher, FSU IDS Program Director and Professor of Scientific Computing, said: “Florida has an opportunity to become a leader in the use of advanced AI tools. It’s a way.”
Breakthrough technologies in AI, which focus on building systems that learn and improve from history and experience rather than on explicit programming, are having a profound impact on many areas of business and industry, including research activities. I am giving
MLX23 will explore the latest trends in machine learning and AI through presentations by FSU faculty, researchers, staff and students, highlighting how these tools are already being applied to solve complex problems to Each presentation is accompanied by an objective analysis to compare issues before and after machine learning integration, and hosted panel discussions address AI education, usage, and ethics.
“Our lives are being transformed by AI,” said Zhe He, associate professor in the Faculty of Informatics at FSU and co-chair of the Master of Information Technology Program. “Almost everyone is affected by AI to some degree.”
This year’s presenters include researchers contributing to the analysis of machine learning and AI from a variety of research perspectives, including art, linguistics, physics, computer science, civil engineering, data management, and cybersecurity. increase.
Keynote speakers include Peter Stone of the University of Texas Artificial Intelligence Lab and Sony AI America, and Founder and Director of the Learning Agents Research Group, part of the Artificial Intelligence Lab in the Computer Science Department of the University of Texas at Austin.
“Machine learning, especially the generative kind of machine learning, has made great strides in both language and images,” said Erlebacher. “Since the launch of the AI chatbot ChatGPT in November 2022, more people are using it than any app or product ever. There are so many ways to use these new technologies. , I look forward to sharing it with the participants.”
Concerns have been commonly expressed about the potential for misuse of AI software. Especially by academics who are most invested in developing technology. The workshop will address these concerns and facilitate discussion on the importance of responsible use.
“It is very important for us to share our experience of using AI in research, education and daily activities,” said Zhe He. “We also want participants to be aware of the unintended consequences of AI in our society.”
MLX23 is sponsored by FSU’s College of Arts and Sciences, College of Communication and Information, School of Information, Department of Computer Science, Department of Scientific Computing, Department of Mathematics, Department of Statistics, and Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship.
