Session
The 'What Does It All Mean?' Machine
The machines are marching and they're getting closer. Do we run away or embrace our new robot overlords?
This session will give a whistlestop tour of the different types of machine learning. We will look at advances happening in the creative space which may form the tools of the near future.
There will be examples, experiments and audience interaction fun. Ask not what you can do for the robots, ask what robots can do for your craft.
Don't be scared, AI is here to serve...for now...
