San Francisco Design Week (Design Bay Area)

<DIV>
<DIV>In the early twentieth century, many of our digital interactions are increasingly through artificial intelligence-driven chatbots and algorithms whether we realize it or not. It makes you wonder if we're edging towards a world where Skynet and Hal 2000 are on the horizon.</DIV>
<DIV CLASS="m_-940215637909273676gmail-paragraph_break"><BR></DIV>
<DIV>With the globe's major companies all trying to make the next big breakthrough in A.I. we’re on the cusp of a paradigm shift in how we design digital interactions with human beings.</DIV>
<DIV CLASS="m_-940215637909273676gmail-paragraph_break"><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Join us for this panel discussion as we ask our panelists: <BR></DIV>
<DIV>- Just what is A.I. and what are the different types of A.I.?<BR></DIV>
<DIV>- Where should you start learning to design for A.I.?<BR></DIV>
<DIV>- What will design skills be in demand for A.I.? <BR></DIV>
<DIV>- What’s different about designing for A.I.?<BR></DIV>
<DIV>- Which A.I. platform(s) should you learn?<BR></DIV>
<DIV>- What jobs will open up for A.I.?</DIV>
