Launch of Stanford HAI -Symposium 2019 We are at a pivotal moment in tech and history the emergence of ai has potential to radically change how we live our lives Stanford President Tessier; this tech has the potential to bring us closer to our shared dream of creating a better future for all of humanity; it will also bring opportunities and challenges which we can not yet foresee Fei-Fei Li | .Associate DirectorsRuss Altman, the Kenneth Fong Professor and professor of bioengineering, genetics, medicine and biomedical data science; Susan Athey, the Economics of Technology Professor at the Graduate School of Business; Surya Ganguli, assistant professor of applied physics; James Landay, the Anand Rajaraman and Venky Harinarayan Professor and professor of computer science; Christopher Manning, the Thomas M. Siebel Professor in Machine Learning and professor of linguistics and computer science: and Robert Reich, the Marc and Laura Andreessen Faculty Co-Director of the Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society and professor of political science. |
This requires a true diversity of thoughts
across gender, age, ethnicity and cultural backgrounds as well as a diverse
representation from different disciplines from engineering, robotics, statistics,
to philosophy, economics, anthropology and many more FFL; the institute will
harness Stanford’s collaborative and interdisciplinary sprit ; across the university we aim to spark discovery
by focusing diverse ways of discovery on common problems President T; I would
like to see Stanford HAI be viewed as the natural hub for discussions about
policy, best practices in AI, where the tech is going John Etchemendy; Stanford
HAI is based on 3 principles: 1 a bet that the future of AI tech is going to be
inspired by our understanding of human intelligence; the second is the
technology has to be guided by our understanding of how it is impacting humans
and society; and third AI applications should be designed to that they can
enhance and augment what humans can do. Ai tech properly deployed can improve the
quality of life of every individual on the planet whether we are talking about
poverty disease, climate change even ageing. Susan Athey : AI has the potential
to transform society at every level from individual decision-making and
education to workers in the workplace making better decisions guided by AI. Being
better trained and prepared as they grow in their careers to corporations being
abled to use data more effectively to make better products and services; Prof Altman
Altman One of the great things about AI
in medicine is we should be able to use both to identify disparities in healthcare
and also rase the standard of healthcare for everybody; James landau: I like to
think about it as intelligence augmentation rather than simply artificial intelligence
so how can we use AI to make a writer be a belter writer or an artist be a more
creative artist or make a teacher be a more empathetic and understanding
teacher; Surya Ganguli: Our goal is to harness the design principles governing
the human brain to build much more intelligent robust and energy efficient machines;
Rob Reich in order to get AI thar delivers all of the benefits that so many people
believe it can bring to humanity, it has to be developed in tandem with people
who study the society and humanities so that it can he harnessed to serve the
interests of humans rather than deployed to undermine them. Anyone who is
developing artificial intelligence whether in the laboratory or applying it
within industry ahs to put ethical questions at the forefront of their very work.
Linda Schierbinger:Technology shapes society and society shapes technology; its
very important that we get that feedback loop right. As the first generation to
bring AI to the world at scale, we have a personal responsibility and
opportunity to work together ad to guide this tech towards a better future for
humanity
