April 2024 AICamp Boston meetup - Rachel St. Clair from Simuli on new architectures for scalable AI

From this event I organized: www.meetup.com...
Speaker Bio:
Rachel St. Clair, Ph.D. is founder and CEO of Simuli (www.simuli.ai). She did her Ph.D. in Brain Sciences with Susan Schneider at Florida Atlanta University. After her Ph.D. she became a research fellow at the Center for Future Mind. She has published over 20 papers on AI and cognitive science. Rachel's company, Simuli, makes processors that use advanced math and an innovative hardware layout to process more information per transistor by compressing information before processing. Rachel envisions an AGI as a computer system which can outperform human abilities in nearly all tasks while helping humanity avoid existential risks.
Talk title & description:
Scalable AI -- Lessons from Biological Architectures for Cognitive Ones
Resource management is a tool nature has crafted over years of evolution. This tool not only has helped organisms and humans alike scale, but grow intelligence inside complex systems. Our focus will be on the two driving mechanisms of resource management as it relates to intelligence -- how to learn new things without forgetting old things and how to bootstrap a-priori knowledge. We'll discuss how these mechanisms work, their relation to existing AI. Finally, we'll showcase some recent work in our new cognitive architecture "ReArc".
