In this lunchtime lecture, Markus Pfundstein will discuss a brief history of Artificial Intelligence and how it became what it is today. He will explain how:

• How the A.I. community is structured

• The difference between A.I. in science fiction and academia

• Share practical examples of expert systems, agent-based reasoning, game theory and decision theory

Markus’ talk will finish by describing A.I. today - aka "Deep Learning". This talk is geared mostly for beginners with basic interest in A.I. but no in-depth knowledge.

Appsterdam Weekly Wednesday Lunchtime Lectures and Pitch Club are now merged to become Appsterdam Lunch Event, a daytime networking event that makes it easier to get to know people in the Appsterdam community.

Appsterdam Lunch Event is a technology-themed pitch training and networking event. Introduce yourself to the room with a one-minute elevator pitch and get feedback from the host, then chat and enjoy lunch with your fellow nerds.

This is a lunchtime event, so we share lunch in the spirit of Appsterdam. Bring something to share, and we'll provide the bread.

If you would like to make a day of it, you are welcome to bring your laptop and sit in our free workspace provided by A Lab, then join us for evening drinks at Cafe Bax.

Everyone is welcome regardless of technical skill. To us, App Makers are engineers, designers, marketeers, lawyers, testers, or anyone else involved with the application of technology.
