The 2024 NYC Media Lab and Bertelsmann Ethical Matrix challenge called for projects that use AI to innovate responsibly across media, services, education and healthcare. The collaborative incubator kicked off 🚀 in early June, with four excellent teams bringing their AI projects to join forces 💪 with 4 Start-Ups, Bertelsmann Company Mentors, Speakers, and programming to chart a responsible course for AI's future, where progress and principles 🤝 coexist.

Come check out this panel on AI for Social Good if you're in NYC on Tuesday! "Social good" may trigger the opinion that "oh, well if we just align to these x, y,z standards, then we'll be ok". But it's SO complex. It's not just about aligning standards but aligning incentives and stakeholders across multiple sectors. And maybe most importantly, being able to balance and still take action when an alignment of perspectives might not happen. Led by Azadeh Jamalian, Ph.D., an educator I've long-admired, this discussion will bring together builders and experts across industry while also being relevant to any parent who's wondering what this all means.

What an interesting time at Týden inovací ČR held at the captivating CSOB headquarters. There was almost too much to choose from, including panel discussions featuring Abran Maldonado, Ondrej Vlcek, Marcel Gajdos, Petr Polak, Michaela Bauer and many others. Here are my key takeaways from the thought-provoking closing panel, where discussions transcended technology and often delved into philosophy, courtesy of the insightful Tomas Sedlacek 1. The AI Conundrum: The debate on AI's impact on humanity continues. Will it enhance our lives or lead to unforeseen challenges? It appears that many potential issues are rooted in our own shortcomings, not AI itself. 2. The 4C Imperative: Critical thinking, collaboration, communication, and creativity are the cornerstones of the future. How can we ensure these skills are integrated into our children's education? 3. The Shift in Human Interaction: Will future generations rely less on physical interaction? It's possible that the new generation might need the "real world" less, and we could be the last to hold onto traditional norms. Exciting times ahead! Your insights and thoughts on these takeaways are highly encouraged. Let's keep the conversation alive. #Innovation #AI #FutureSkills #Humanity"

Reflecting on AI-generated images of founders: Are we programming our biases into the future? Let’s invest in diversity within our datasets for a more equitable tech landscape. Editor’s note 📝 : When AI mirrors reality too closely: Can we redefine diversity in Silicon Valley startups through more inclusive training data? Can we build these AI system to think beyond stereotypes and build systems that reflect true diversity? Or are we programming our biases into the future? And how can we invest in diversity within our datasets for a more equitable tech landscape.

Top five take aways from the BrXnd.ai conference yesterday in NYC: 1. Use AI to get your ideas into the world like Jenny Nicholson. Execution is (now) instant. Ideas are priceless. 2. Submit the machines to your artistic vision, like Frédéric Raillard. Fear has no place in creativity. 3. 70% of clients prefer a virtual sales experience to a human one as their first point of contact. Amanda Kahlow is taking this to market with a new stealth startup called 1mind. 4. There's no reason not to field qual behind every important decision that you make in business. Justin Ibbett at Focaldata is closing the loop, with quick-turn project managment and flash polling of real humans. 5. Create a custom GPT of yourself to brainstorm with you. Heck, have the whole team make them, and double the idea generation like David Cole at Colgate-Palmolive Great food for thought. Great food, too. I'll be back next year for sure. #ai #artificialintelligence #marketinginnovation #digitalinnovation #coolshit https://lnkd.in/dSt-e4eh

But Antonella was able to write using only her eyes thanks to OTTAA, a groundbreaking device from Chilean start-up Comunicacion Aumentativa.

Building AI for mental health and human flourishing | Co-Founder & CEO @ Flourish Science | Behavioral Scientist @ Stanford
Flourish Science has been accepted into the StartX AI series 🤩🤩 After months of learning, exploration, and pilot testing, I am fully convinced that LLM is a game-changer in building well-being & human flourishing. I believe its true potential goes way beyond building chatbots (which I’ve built in my previous research — new paper coming out soon); rather, I see numerous opportunities to apply the powerful foundation models, combined with fine-tuning and our unique datasets, to inspire more meaningful HUMAN connections digitally and IRL. This means we can finally build a social app that maximizes meaningful interaction and well-being—something humanity has always deserved but never had! Supported by our domain expertise in psychology, a world-class scientific advisory board, and the AI founder community at Stanford and StartX, we’re excited to embark on this journey and create some of the most innovative AI-empowered well-being applications the world has yet to see! 🤩

[Creative Life] AI(LLMs, ChatBot) for Psychological Knowledge Engagement [We can finally build a social app that maximizes meaningful interaction and well-being—something humanity has always deserved but never had!] Cool! We will see the next generation of psychological knowledge engagement in the coming years. Will AI-powered ChatBot replace human therapists and counselors in psychotherapy practice? Will AI-powered ChatBot replace human life coaches? (11/16/2023)
