Jürgen Schmidhuber at CloudFest 2024: A Conversation with the Father of Modern AI

Jürgen Schmidhuber’s fascination with artificial intelligence began in the 1970s, and he has pursued it ever since—essentially trying to build his own replacement. He is widely known as “the father of AI”, but is quick to acknowledge the interconnected successes of others that have brought us—as an industry and a society—to this point. But what IS this point, exactly? Schmidhuber sat down with i2Coalition Executive Director Christian Dawson for a candid conversation about the true risks of AI, its near-term potential, and what happens when AIs set their own goals. So sit down, press Play, and broaden your perspective!
