Join us for what's sure to be an awesome night in AI! This month's event focuses on the intersection of AI & Robotics. We'll hear from Hod Lipson (Director of the Creative Machines Lab, author, founder, and Professor of Engineering & Data Science at Columbia University) who will talk about "The Robot Scientist: Automating discovery, from cognitive robotics to computational biology"
Wine + Beer + AI + Networking = The Best Tuesday ever!
Can machines discover scientific laws automatically? Despite the prevalence of big data, the process of distilling data into scientific laws has resisted automation. Particularly challenging are situations with small amounts of data that is difficult or expensive to collect. This talk will outline a series of recent research projects, starting with self-reflecting robotic systems, and ending with machines that can formulate hypotheses, design experiments, and interpret the results, to discover new scientific laws. We will see examples from psychology to cosmology, from classical physics to modern physics, from big science to small science.
