Keynotes and Speakers
AI and You: The Automated Age
Generative AI, LLMs, and Chatbots, oh my! The last few years have seen these cause massive disruption in our lives. How many kinds of AI are there? What is AI good at? What is it NOT good at? How does it work? How can things go sideways and how can you prevent that? Susan Earley will try to educate you on when and how to use AI responsibly and when not to, using examples from NASA and the legal profession.
Susan Earley is a career data management professional who went and got a law degree and license as a midlife crisis/COVID thing. Her focus in law school was Intellectual Property and Technology, which pretty much describes AI. She currently works at NASA advising the CDO and CAIO on policy development and compliance.
So My Agent Tells Me: Visions of Our AI Future, From the Recent Past
Gen AI. MCP. RAG. Agentic AI. If these and all the rest of the artificial intelligence (AI) concepts being tossed around these days sound like science fiction to you, it’s probably because until just a few years ago, that’s exactly what they were. Jim will augur the future of our industry through tales from master visionaries and explain where he sees our civilization is headed, with IT professionals in the lead.
