Topic

Balancing Human Creativity with Algorithms

Abstract

Scaling human efforts and creativity to meet ever growing communications needs requires the use of Algorithms and Artificial Intelligence, without losing what it means to be human. Human communications normally do not scale beyond 150 close connections (Dunbar Number) but with the use of Social Media and AI, can be massively scaled and hyper-targeted without losing its authenticity. In his talk, Professor Sponder will outline what it takes to successfully combine the best aspects of human creativity and technology while staying true to the medium and message.
