What they say

Today's event was very informative. I'm impressed by the level of organization. Today's speakers were true leaders and experts in their fields and because of that I feel honored to be able to participate in an event of this scale. I've learned that artificial intelligence is already surrounding our everyday lives and it really makes a difference. The thing that stuck in my mind the most is that we have to look at the bigger picture and focus not only on our selfish needs but innovate in a sustainable way. Overall I've really enjoyed this event.

It was an excellent event. The Tianjin vice-major's speech was very meaningful. I also liked the points about the underestimation of the long-term impacts of technology and the high costs behind innovation. While the previous industrial revolutions were about how to do something at the push of a button, the current initiative is to make a machine that can create these buttons by itself. What we need to do is to provide the right input for this machine to be able to learn. The increase of funding behind China's AI startups is also interesting. I am curious what products this will create in the coming decades and how these will influence our lives.
