Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to dramatically improve the lives of people and increase the prosperity of businesses, but solving a problem as hard as intelligence will require a diversity of thought and the best minds from every corner of the globe. Our mission is to support the advancement of Latin American talent, research, and companies in AI through an annual event.
Khipu 2019 will take place November 11-15 at the Facultad de Ingeniería, Universidad de la República in Montevideo, Uruguay. The primary goals of the event are:
• To offer training in advanced machine learning topics, such as deep learning and reinforcement learning.
• To strengthen the machine learning community by fostering collaborations between Latin American researchers, and creating opportunities for connections and knowledge exchange with the broader international community.
• To grow awareness around how AI may be used for the benefit of Latin America
