Businesses have only recently begun harnessing the power of the innovation done in big data, cloud computing, and Internet of Things. And now, Artificial Intelligence is poised to shatter the paradigm by which we live, work, and interact.


The Sloan Tech Club is excited to announce that RAY KURZWEIL will be the lead keynote of a packed day exploring the impact of artificial intelligence on the way we live, work and play.


Called "the restless genius" by The Wall Street Journal and "the ultimate thinking machine" by Forbes magazine, Kurzweil was selected as one of the top entrepreneurs by Inc. magazine, which described him as the "rightful heir to Thomas Edison." PBS selected him as one of the "sixteen revolutionaries who made America." He wrote the New York Times best seller "The Singularity Is Near" and is also a Director of Engineering at Google heading up a team developing machine intelligence and natural language understanding.


Come learn about how businesses are leveraging AI today, where they'll be investing tomorrow and what the fate of human society will be (seriously), with speakers such as Dennis Mortensen (x.ai), Amanda Kahlow (6sense), Illah Nourbakhsh, John Frankel (ff VC), Bruno Kurtic (Sumo Logic) and more.
