**Hey TEAM,**

**Let's kick-off 2024 with an awesome talk on AI! We are collaborating with AiCon meetup for this talk.**

https://www.meetup.com/aiconmelb-meetup/

**Talk Topic:**
Leveraging Generative AI in the real-world \~ A reflection on Intelligence, Agency, Learning, Representation, Language & Emergence

**Talk Summary:**
Leveraging Generative AI and fusing them into existing systems creates unique engineering challenges. For instance, testing of linguistic interfaces, communicating new features & changes & integration issues driven by use of evolving co-pilots. Furthermore, the likely evolution of this emerging technology over the next decade poses more unique challenges for project sponsors. These challenges can be (partially) addressed if we better understand “machine learning” and the challenges from a philosophical first-principles perspective. In this talk, I present ideas that add nuance & depth to help us better communicate the promise and limitations of this technology – informing risk and decision making both technically and from the business aspects.

**Speaker:**
Prof. Rajesh Vasa
Head of Translational Research, Applied Artificial Intelligence Institute, Deakin University

Professor Vasa specialises in building robust AI infused technology. He has a strong record as a technology leader with work spanning defence technologies for contextual adaptation, smart manufacturing processes, building intelligent homes, data driven traffic congestion models, large scale complex simulations to support decision making, and improving patient health outcomes in clinical settings. His core research area is in improving robustness in complex systems with an active focus on “AI infused systems”; he actively publishes in top-ranked journals and conferences in software engineering/complex system development.

Currently, Rajesh leads a multi-disciplinary team focused on solving high-impact societal problems. Prof Vasa brings over a decade of experience from technology industry across the world having held roles spanning engineering and executive leadership. His career spans roles in technology engineering, operations, and executive leadership with an international work profile. The concepts he developed resulted in spinouts of 4 companies; one of his smart-home spinouts listed on ASX in Jan 2022. He is an advisor to various organisations globally in the space of complex systems, technology development and Artificial Intelligence.
