Applied AI Lunch Talk

AI and Smart Cities is a hot topic for developers, governments, citizens and organinisations, but how do we realise the concept of an AI-driven Smart City in reality? How do we match the needs of citizens with technology, and ensure that we are developing in a safe, ethical manner and that AI processes are well-described, transparent and have business value? In this talk, Ben will explain the components, value-creation, challenges and future of the City Scale AI-Powered Local Digital Twin.

While computer vision applications are common across industries, training custom AI models can be challenging. The process of training these models is not only costly but also demands substantial data. To address these AI constraints and amplify the value of AI applications, companies should pivot to synthetic data. Gartner predicts that by 2030, most of the data leveraged in AI will be synthetic: artificially generated by rules, statistical models, simulations, or other techniques. Join us for an inspiring session on synthetic data and how it is used across industries.
