Launched in 2022 by MBZUAI, The AI Quorum is a winter series of gatherings designed to stimulate cutting-edge AI research with leading scientists and share an understanding of the discipline as a force for good. The series is strategic and high-level by design. The AI Quorum is focused on curiosity, collaboration, authenticity, and the pursuit of excellence – it is a coming together of the brightest minds to set the research agenda and to imagine both what AI could accomplish and how it might get there.
Theme: Building Ecosystems for AI at Scale
AI at scale - made famous by OpenAI's "GPT-3" in 2020 - is powering AI use cases that were previously thought impossible, such as synthetic art, automatic software programming, and drug design.
Our workshop brings experts in AI at scale to the region, who will map out steps that organizations should take to become self-sufficient at these applications, and to explore new business use cases.
The program has two sessions: Research Session - Thursday Oct 13th Industry Session - Friday Oct 14th, available to the public via livestream
About CASL The Composable, Automatic and Scalable Learning (CASL) organization brings together technologists who envision that the broader public — the “power of many” — can collaboratively build Artificial Intelligence as easily as stacking “Lego” blocks. We explore how AI can be built in a holistic, “all levels” approach that covers data, models, training/inference algorithms, meta-learning, parallelization, scheduling, resource management and software infrastructure.
