IT Innovation Festival is coming again! This year, we have focused on artificial intelligence and its trustworthiness and security.There are already dozens of areas where AI applications are used today. For the most part, we do not realise that online stores, web engines, machine translation, smart homes or infrastructures, cars, or cybersecurity solutions use different applications. Artificial intelligence technologies are also making a significant difference to our lives and our economies in healthcare, transport, the military, manufacturing, public services or food and agriculture.
However, do we know what is going on "under the belly" of these applications, and are they trustworthy and secure? How to ensure that data fed to AI comes from reliable sources is free from prejudice and is not susceptible to manipulation? In addition, understanding the operation of artificial intelligence algorithms is an important issue.
Let us take a closer look and listen to these topics on June 15 at the Mektory Innovation Center at 13-16.30 PM! The moderator of the day is ERR journalist Anna Pihl.
The key-note speakers at the conference will be:
* Pawel Sobocinski, a professor at the Department of Software Science at TalTech
* Jaan Tallinn, entrepreneur and AI expert
Kristjan Port, a professor of health behavior and sports biology at Tallinn University
* Peter Warren Singer, a US political scientist and 21st century war expert.
Professor Tanel Tammet, entrepreneur Jaan Tallinn, Ott Velsberg, Head of State Data at the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications, and President Kersti Kaljulaid will participate in a panel discussion “What kind Artificial Intelligence we really deserve?"
With short videos, the researchers of the School of IT present their achievements in the field of AI. Presentations in Estonian will be translated into English with simultaneous translation and videos will be with subtitles.
The hybrid event is for students, companies, university staff and researchers, teachers of general education schools and vocational training centers, as well as prospective students and parents.
