The Real Implications of Generative AI - Video Clips
Watch the videos of some of the best short talks from Remarkable People on the forefront of the Gen AI World in our recent Meeting of the Minds in San Francisco
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a motion picture must take us into exponential territory. So far in the launch of this new series The Great Progression, we have stuck to writing up what we have learned in the last couple Meetings of the Minds at ground zero for the Generative AI revolution in San Francisco.
However, we did video the events with three cameras that captured what about a dozen different speakers said in short 5-minute talks, plus the reactions and interactions of about 250 people jammed into the Shack15 club in San Francisco. So in this piece we are showcasing a few of the best talks that might be worth watching in their entirety rather than reading extended quotes, or hearing my synthesis of what they said.
You can watch the videos one by one via Substack or go to YouTube to watch them at our Reinvent Futures channel there. Either way they are the next best thing to being there with us in the Ferry Building overlooking the San Francisco bay.
My opening overview of The Great Progression Series, the amazing people who gathered, plus that event’s focus on the Real Implications of Gen AI:
Tim O’Reilly, founder of O’Reilly Media that caters to software coders, the curator of the FOO Camp unconferences, & the person who coined Web 2.0:
Michelle Lee, former head of Amazon Web Services Machine Learning Lab, former Director of the US Patent Office, & former Under Secretary of Commerce:
Ken Goldberg, Chair of AI and Robotics at UC Berkeley, Cofounder of a Robotics startup, yet a long-time skeptic of what AI could do:
Kanjun Qiu, CEO & Cofounder of Generally Intelligent, an AI research lab building general purpose agents that can be safely deployed in the real world:
Arjun Prakash, CEO & Cofounder of Distyl AI, a new Gen AI company & a longtime AI expert with more than a decade of experience at Palantir:
I want to give a thanks to those whose support makes this ambitious project by Reinvent Futures possible, including the development of all these videos. Our partners Shack15 club in the Ferry Building in San Francisco and Cerebral Valley, the community of founders and builders in Gen AI. And our sponsors Autodesk, Capgemini, and Slalom who help with the resources and the networks that bring it all together. We could not do this without you.
