Title: The Nature of Artificial Intelligence - Reiss Lecture

Speaker: Melanie Mitchell, Santa Fe Institute

Abstract: AI is all around us--recognizing faces in photos, transcribing speech, answering questions, writing essays, generating code, and much more. But rapidly improving AI is poised to play a much bigger role in all of our lives. In this lecture, I will describe how contemporary AI works, how "intelligent" it really is, and what our expectations--and concerns--about its near-term and long-term prospects should be.
