IEEE SCV WIE AI Summit 2025
In an era where AI technologies are rapidly transforming industries and redefining possibilities, it is crucial to explore both the innovations driving this change and the responsibilities that come with it. Today, we will delve into a diverse array of topics that highlight the multifaceted nature of AI and its profound impact on our lives.
Our sessions will cover the latest developments in Large Language Models and Foundation Models, exploring efficient fine-tuning, multilingual adaptation, and the role of LLMs as knowledge bases. We will also examine the evolution of AI agents, focusing on autonomous task completion, multi-agent collaboration, and the integration of external knowledge for robust decision-making.
In the realm of Vision and Multimodality, we will explore the integration of text, image, and video understanding, as well as advanced techniques like zero-shot learning and self-supervised learning. Our discussions on MLOps for LLMs will provide insights into best practices for training, deploying, and evaluating large models.
We will also address the critical areas of Knowledge-Grounded Reasoning, On-Device Learning, and the ethical dimensions of AI, including bias mitigation, privacy preservation, and the detection of misinformation.
