Fetch.AI Berlin meetup: Building Collective Intelligence with Machine Learning

Are you a developer or enthusiast who’s interested in learning how the combination of AI and distributed ledger technology is changing the world? Join us for an evening presentation and discussion with the Fetch.AI team on the topic of:

“Building Collective Intelligence with Decentralised Machine Learning”

The field of artificial intelligence has made a tremendous leap in the past decade. However, most of these improvements have been in narrow applications such as speech recognition or machine vision. In the future we need to move beyond narrow AI, and towards general and collective intelligence. Fetch is developing innovative approaches in artificial intelligence and decentralised ledger technology to support the world’s largest population of digital agents. Learn how agents on the Fetch network interact to exchange value with each other, and how this digital marketplace can shape the future economy. Join us in discussing the progress that Fetch is making in building agents for hospitality, life sciences, healthcare and transport to solve a range of challenges.

Fetch.AI Team:

Humayun Sheikh, CEO, Fetch.ai
With his fourth major venture, Humayun is the founder, backer and CEO. Fetch.AI. Humayun is a true entrepreneur and visionary. His first venture bought an entirely new way of thinking to the steel recycling sector, building his company Metallis from start-up to £40m in six years. He was a lead investor in DeepMind, having the vision to provide early-stage support to artificial intelligence & deep neural network technology. DeepMind was ultimately acquired by Google for $500m in 2014. In addition, he was an early investor in PLUMgrid, the cloud solution provider. Humayun studied nanotechnology at Cranfield University and considers Blockchain, AI and Machine learning as his key focus points in the near future.

Toby Simpson, CTO, Fetch.ai
Toby has thirty years' experience in software development with ten as CTO across three companies. As a software developer and manager, he’s built and directed many successful computer games across several platforms including producing the highly regarded Creatures series in the 90s. More recently, he was one of the original developers at AI company DeepMind, acquired by Google in 2014, looking at nature’s contribution to artificial general intelligence.

At Fetch.AI, he’s using his knowledge of managing software complexity and distributed, decentralised problem solving to architect and deliver the next generation of economic software agents and the environments in which they live and thrive: converging digital intelligence with cryptoeconomics to build a fairer, more efficient and seamless future economy.

Code of Conduct: Fetch.AI is focused on building open source critical infrastructure to enable autonomous economic exchanges that ultimately make people’s lives easier. We are committed to organising inclusive meetups that welcome people from all backgrounds irrespective of gender, race, age or socio-economic background. We aim to build a community of those interested in how AI and distributed ledger technology can change the world for the better.
