MetaAI: artificial intelligence that can engineer itself | Otkrist Gupta | TEDxBeaconStreet

Artificial intelligence is about making computers pass the turing test. But what happens when AIs start engineering themselves ? In this talk Otkrist Gupta discusses how something like this is possible and what are the ramifications of such technologies. Otkrist Gupta is currently Vice President of Data Science at Lendbuzz, focussing on deep learning with applications in finance and computer vision. He completed his Ph.D. at MIT Media Lab from camera culture group. His research is focused on inventing new algorithms for deep learning for health screening and diagnosis, hidden geometry detection, exploiting techniques from optimization, linear algebra and compressive sensing. He also works on designing algorithms for futuristic 3D projective displays.

Before joining MIT Media Lab Otkrist worked in Google Now team where he built voice actions such as take a picture and what's on my Chromecast and worked on voice response quality from Google Now. He also worked at LinkedIn where he developed services such as Smart ToDo, Ultra fast auto-complete, Notifications and CheckIn platform. He completed his bachelors from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD) in Computer Science with emphasis on algorithms and linear algebra. After graduating from IITD, he worked for one year in field of High Frequency Trading at Tower Research Capital. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
