On Thursday, November 30th, Dr. Vivek Srikumar will enlighten our understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI). AI is a machine’s ability to perform the cognitive functions we associate with human minds, such as perceiving, reasoning, learning, interacting with an environment, problem solving, and even exercising creativity. Because of the power of AI and the changes it will bring, it’s crucial that we get a grasp of what it is and is not. Dr. Srikumar is an associate professor in the Kahlert School of Computing at the University of Utah. He co-leads the Utah Natural Language Processing Group and has dedicated research of AI.
