Pete Warden, CEO, Useful Sensors | Founder, TensorFlow Lite Micro

There are a lot of places in our everyday lives where smarter objects could improve our health, happiness, and safety. Whether it's ensuring warehouse robots don't run over workers or just making sure your carpet cleaner removes a stain, adding perception to items is the first step to making them more intelligent. Traditionally computer vision and other machine learning approaches to understanding the world around us have required massive up-front investments of time and money, and so have only been available to large technology companies. In this talk Pete will discuss the movement towards standardizing those capabilities within smart sensors that can be used without those barriers.

Steve Kent CPO, Know Labs

Data shapes and informs the technology that we use, but not all data provides the same benefit. The highest quality datasets are needed to develop robust algorithms – requiring access to high resolution and continuous data, and precise data collection methods and data management. These known data collection methods and best practices in conjunction with Edge AI have the potential to transform the healthcare industry. There are more intelligent medical devices, producing more continuous data, on more diverse patient populations than ever. The ability to organize these data will allow physicians and technology developers to use AI and ML at scale to build predictive and preventive health management protocols and interventions. Steve Kent will dive deep into best practices for comprehensive and inclusive data collection, as well as how best to organize, analyze, interpret, and communicate findings in a scalable and meaningful way to empower patients on their journey to optimal health.

What ways are edge AI solutions being integrated into different environments? Join Lexmark Ventures CTO Anupam Sahai as he describes applications and use cases that his team are navigating, and offers takeaways that can be beneficial to others that are looking to enable AI tools into their own products.

Alessya Visnjic CEO, WhyLabs

The rise of foundation models has substantially reduced the barrier to adopting AI.  Instead of constructing bespoke models from the ground up, AI builders simply fine-tune a powerful, off-the-shelf model for their hardware and business requirements. Now, the principal challenge that AI teams face lies in constructing a scalable and robust architecture for the continuous improvement of AI-powered applications. In this presentation, we will review key risks associated with running AI in production and how to take advantage of the emerging AI tooling ecosystem to mitigate these risks by introducing reproducibility, transparency, and observability to the Edge AI system architecture.
