Sign up now before registration closes and see IBM, NVIDIA, Continental and more discuss AI in Automotive!

Artificial intelligence experts from the east and west coasts will share their insights with us this Thursday,  and we've saved you a seat... but you must sign up now to claim it.

Technology innovators from IBM, NVIDIA, Nuance, Continental and more will explore deep learning, natural language processing, and other AI technologies making an impact on the auto industry.

We've ordered a full, hot breakfast for you to enjoy when you arrive and during the mid-morning break, when you can network with our AI expert panelists, WardsAuto analysts and your peers.

And you'll park for free in the convenient structure across the street from the Townsend Hotel, for easy access to and from the venue. 

Sign up now to see the presentations on:

• Fireside Chat on the State of AI in Automotive
  IBM’s Global Automotive Leader for Cognitive Solutions, Dan Ricci, will join WardsAuto for a “fireside chat” on AI’s growing role in automotive. Not only will you get to hear a frank, one-on-one discussion between IBM’s Ricci and WardsAuto’s Content Director Drew Winter, but you’ll get to ask him questions on the AI goals and concerns of your business and chat with him during breakfast.
  – Featuring Dan Ricci, Global Automotive Leader - IBM Cognitive Solutions .
  
  
• Automotive Applications for Artificial Intelligence 
  A big-picture look at current and future applications for artificial intelligence from one of the Auto Industry’s top Tier 1 suppliers.
  – Presented by Dr. David Atkinson, Head of Systems & Technology and Chief Research Scientist for Artificial Intelligence, Continental, Silicon Valley Research & Development Center.
  
  
• Deep Learning
  Deep learning enables machines to become smarter than humans at specific tasks. Among other things, it can be used to train vehicle guidance systems to recognize other cars, people and bikes more accurately than a human. Hear how Deep Learning will transform the auto industry by creating superhuman levels of perception and performance.  
  – Presented by Bill Veenhuis, senior solutions architect-Automotive Group, NVIDIA.
  
  
• Natural Language Processing
  Natural speech recognition is reinventing the relationship between people and technology. Learn how speech software leader Nuance is using a variety of AI technologies to use reasoning and knowledge to fill in blanks that are inferred but not mentioned explicitly in order to create dialog that is more conversational than conventional menu-based voice recognition systems.
  – Presented by Charles Ortiz, director-Nuance Laboratory for AI and NLP, Nuance Communications.
  
  
• AI, 5G and Connectivity
  To fully revolutionize the automotive industry, AI requires the speed that only a 5G mobile network can satisfy. But the telecommunication industry must hammer out new standards and update its infrastructure before the ultra-low latency connection can go live.
  – Presented by Julie Kunstler, Principal Analyst, Ovum Research, Informa.
  
  
• Using AI to Drive Sales
  How companies are using artificial intelligence to process big data, extract signals and better understand customer needs and behavior.
  – Presented by Ari Tuchman, Ph.D., CEO and Co-founder, Quantifind.
