About the event

This is a hybrid event which means it takes place at Foo Café in Malmö and online. 

To attend in Malmö you need to sign up via Foo Café - Sign up here!

Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning are buzzwords of the last few years.
But it has been a very long road to get here - depending on how we count, at least from the fifties. Fast-forward, and we can today offer you various insights from around the industry.

We have a professor who will share his latest thoughts on what it means with data. There is also the student who uses AI/ML together with psychology. And how about the doctor at math who detects cancer and fingerprints? And finally, the product company that keeps our code safe.

Join us for an evening of eye-openers within AI/ML!

When we have more data than statistics, does the world become equal?

Some thoughts from the collectors in the care! Are "sick" data more sensitive than other data and what can they teach us that we do not know today, Our ability to measure has never been greater, we produce measurement values ​​from sensors and other devices all the time, how can we use this data to better understand how we can prevent and alleviate disease in the long run. 12 minutes on how health data in real-time can change our knowledge of prevention and prediction. Can we act better towards data or continue retrospectively on our statistics?

Understanding the language through well-being, personality, and psychopaths through AI

How do people express their well-being in words? 

Which words do psychopaths use on Twitter? 

What is the language of extraverts on Facebook messenger? 

Apart from predicting the next word one will write or correct one's grammar, language-focused artificial intelligence (natural language processing) can today be used in psychology research. The Natural Language Processing development has exploded in the past years, including a battle of the giants between the big tech companies to create the strongest language model. The progress helps psychology researchers to get a deeper, complementary, and more thorough understanding of human beings by enabling text data analysis instead of traditional numerical data analysis.

Semantic Code Discovery - AI-powered code recommendations

One of the greatest benefits of open source is that developers don’t have to reinvent the wheel for every piece of software they need. But how can developers find the right wheel to use, is reading a 6-year-old forum thread really the best way? Code and functionality search is a challenging topic with a ton of new research in recent years. In this talk, Emil will give an introduction to semantic code search and how to find code using words. Debricked tries to leverage machine learning to help developers discover the best open-source functionality for their problems.

How do you trust an AI and when do you need to?

AI has found its way to all kinds of applications: from cancer detection to smart autocompletion. But AI predictions are stochastic, meaning that there are elements of randomness in them, and results are often not perfect. How can developers design software so that the user puts an appropriate level of trust in the AI predictions? And how do you make a user interact with the AI efficiently?
