AI Regulations in Financial Services with Vinay Kumar
Vinay Kumar discusses the transformation of AI in banking and financial services, addressing challenges and solutions with regulatory compliance and model explainability while addressing the stringent requirements in the financial industry.Episode QuotesVinay Kumar"I always believe in this: you don't need to solve a very large problem. Maybe it will take a lot of time to do that. A lot of resources to do that but something small, which you can have an opportunity to solve that could be very big or a fundamental for quite a bit is fantastic. Think of a scenario where your small fundamental idea is a base for another small fundamental idea for someone else." Charna ParkeyWe also want to ground it a little bit in impact we've been seeing. And I think in the financial, banking, insurance industries it's not, I would say, an even distribution of advancement. Different countries have different regulations and different appetites for risk."Timestamps- [00:00:00] Introduction by Charna Parkey.- [00:01:57] Vinay Kumar begins talking about his journey.- [00:05:27] Discussion on building a search engine for STEM researchers.- [00:07:06] Challenges with early deep learning.- [00:09:55] Conversation shifts to ML observability.- [00:17:06] Discussion on simplifying verticalized AI.- [00:22:30] Impact of large language models (LLMs) on AI.- [00:30:58] Comparison of autonomous cars with AI regulation.- [00:37:58] Vinay mentions his science fiction novels.- [00:42:19] Conversation summary with Producer Leo Godoy.

The importance and the Challenges & Solutions of AI Literacy with Brian Magerko
QuotesBrian Magerko“We're really trying to show that we could co-create experiences with AI technology that augmented our experience rather than served as something to replace us in creative act”.“For every project like [LuminAI], there's a thousand companies out there just trying to do their best to get our money... That's an uncomfortable place to be in for someone who has worked in AI for decades”.“I had no idea what was going to happen kind of in the future. When we started EarSketch... we were advised by a couple of colleagues to not do it. And here we are, having engaged over a million and a half learners globally”.Charna Parkey"I remember the first robot that I built. It was part of the first robotic systems... and watching these machines work with each other was just crazy."“If you're building a product and your goal is to engage underrepresented groups, it is on you to make sure that you're educating the folks in a way that you're trying to reach.”Episode timestamps(01:11) Brian Magerko's Journey into AI and Robotics (05:00) LuminAI and Human-Machine Collaboration in Dance(09:00) Challenges of AI Literacy and Public Perception(17:32) Explainable AI and Accountability (20:00) The Future of AI and Its Impact on Human Interaction (22:10) EarSketch and learning: computing as a meaningful concept (27:18) The need for interdisciplinary collaboration to ensure AI developments are beneficial for society as a whole.(30:02) Brian Magerko's next reshape of the future, better understanding models of collaboration and improvisation between people and computers(35:51) Brian Magerko's advice to researchers based on his own identity and experiences(44:20) Projects and updates related to EarSketch and LuminAI’s improvisation model.(46:24) Backstage with Executive Producer Leo Godoy
