Dr. Fei-Fei Li is renowned for her incredible contributions to the field of AI. But behind her grand successes is a powerful story of overcoming adversity and triumph against all odds. Based on her critically acclaimed memoir, The Worlds I See, this keynote tells the story of Dr. Li’s journey from China’s middle class to American poverty to her position at the forefront of AI today, and her lifelong passion for science that accompanied her every step of the way. Touching on the struggles of being an immigrant in America, the hurdles involved in breaking into a male-dominated field, the work that still remains to diversify STEM, and ending on a hopeful note, Dr. Li’s story is touching and deeply human.
Artificial intelligence is an incredibly powerful technology, but ultimately, it is morally neutral. Whether it brings humanity into a new era of prosperity or the end of civilization as we know it is completely in the hands of the people using it. In this keynote, leading AI pioneer Dr. Fei-Fei Li breaks through the noise of utopias and dystopias from both sides of the spectrum and leaves audiences with a message rooted in reality: it is our collective responsibility to ensure AI benefits humanity. Weaving together insights on ethics, governance, and societal impacts, this presentation is an urgent call to shape the course of artificial intelligence with integrity and purpose.
The AI of today can see, speak, and create in the digital space. The AI of tomorrow will be able to understand and interact with the 3D world—just as you can. Renowned AI visionary Dr. Fei-Fei Li is taking us there. In this keynote that feels like a glimpse into a crystal ball, Dr. Li shares the latest research from her lab and others that are building the foundation for AI-powered spatial intelligence known as Large World Models (LWMs). More than image recognition and language understanding, spatial intelligence is a complex process linking perception with action that allows humans to assess the many interconnected and nuanced elements of a situation nearly simultaneously and know exactly what needs to be done next. With practical applications as varied as healthcare, manufacturing, engineering, robotics, game design, filmmaking, and more, this developing technology will change the way work is done in almost every industry.
