See all- The ML/AI Green Battery Hack - Pitch Night (Melbourne)700 Swanston St, Carlton, VI
>>> SIGN UPS AVAILABLE ONLY ON HUMANITIX <<<
>>>>>> CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP<<<<<<Get ready for the Melbourne ML/AI Green Battery Hack Pitch Night! (Sydney Event Is Here)
For 2 weeks between the 6th and 20th of April, participants in the ML/AI Green Battery Hack will put their heads together and develop the best trading models to trade electricity on the electricity spot market via a simulated battery.At the end of the 2 week period, participants will submit their AI algorithms to start trading over a span of 10 days, the most efficient of which will win go on to the Pitch Night to win the Trading Prize for most money generated. At the same time, a panel of expert judges will review the submissions and choose the 5 teams who crafted their algorithms while using AI and machine learning in the most innovative ways to win the Innovation Prize.
ON THE PITCH NIGHT
The teams with the most efficient algorithms that generate the most return will be announced where they'll win the Trading Prize, after which the 5 finalist teams will get up on stage to to pitch to both the judges and an audience of over 300 about why their algorithm deserves to win the Innovation Prize! Together the prize pools total $6000!This event is an exciting opportunity to witness how artificial intelligence is paving the way for sustainable energy solutions in Australia and how this community is driving it.
NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES
Connect with over 300 AI enthusiasts, industry professionals, and potential employers. Enjoy a complimentary dinner and engage in meaningful conversations that could shape the future of AI and green energy!INTER-CITY COLLAB
Running simultaneously across BOTH Melbourne and Sydney, this year's ML/AI Hackathon will be the first inter-city event where a live feed will connect the two communities! The Pitch Night will be running across the two cities at the same time so if you're in Sydney and want to come see the innovation then check out the event sign up page here!WANT TO KNOW MORE?

Title: A LLM and two robot dogs walk into a bar
Presenters: Andy Gelme & Jaime Blackwell
Abstract: Rapid improvements in generative and predictive A.I. have been both relentless and breathtaking. Also, these improvements enable a lot more than just better web-based chat bots! As well as providing a basis for more capable agent-based systems in the digital world ... there is a growing realization that multi-modal foundation models are learning "representations" that are useful in the physical world, particularly for robotics.
The presentation will cover a range of related topics, including interactively streaming media (audio / video) from a couple of robots into ML Models, including LLMs running locally and remotely. Whilst contemplating the implications for designing and implementing software in the future, with A.I. mediated user-interfaces, with agent based systems ... and also working with hardware in the physical world. Time permitting, will also play around with some "theory of mind" experiments.
This will be interspersed with live demonstrations using a couple of tiny robot dogs ... what could possibly go wrong ?
