1. Lo que existe

1.1 Douglas Lenat Computers with common sense

Doug Lenat writes programs that are creative: they think up new mathematical conjectures, predict terrorist plots, and propose unsuspected disease pathways. Unlike other machine learning algorithms, his programs are based on Sherlock-Holmes-style reasoning, not statistics. A former computer science professor at Stanford, Doug and his CYC.com team are now hard at work here in Austin, trying to give computers the one thing they need most: common sense.

1.2 Ray KurzweilGet ready for hybrid thinking

Two hundred million years ago, our mammal ancestors developed a new brain feature: the neocortex. This stamp-sized piece of tissue (wrapped around a brain the size of a walnut) is the key to what humanity has become. Now, futurist Ray Kurzweil suggests, we should get ready for the next big leap in brain power, as we tap into the computing power in the cloud.

1.3 David Cope Music professor

Is it Mozart or Professor David Cope? Many of the world’s experts can’t tell. See how this music professor uses his own software to make beautiful music.

1.4 Facial recognition

Fei Fei Li How we’re teaching computers to understand pictures

When a very young child looks at a picture, she can identify simple elements: «cat,» «book,» «chair.» Now, computers are getting smart enough to do that too. What’s next? In a thrilling talk, computer vision expert Fei-Fei Li describes the state of the art — including the database of 15 million photos her team built to «teach» a computer to understand pictures — and the key insights yet to come.

1.2 Aprendizaje transcontextual, evolving, emergent, network intelligence

Jeremy Howard: The wonderful and terrifying implications of computers that can learn

What happens when we teach a computer how to learn? Technologist Jeremy Howard shares some surprising new developments in the fast-moving field of deep learning, a technique that can give computers the ability to learn Chinese, or to recognize objects in photos, or to help think through a medical diagnosis. (One deep learning tool, after watching hours of YouTube, taught itself the concept of “cats.”) Get caught up on a field that will change the way the computers around you behave … sooner than you probably think.

2. Ciencia inteligente

Kevin Slavin: How algorithms shape our world

Kevin Slavin argues that we’re living in a world designed for — and increasingly controlled by — algorithms. In this riveting talk from TEDGlobal, he shows how these complex computer programs determine: espionage tactics, stock prices, movie scripts, and architecture. And he warns that we are writing code we can’t understand, with implications we can’t control.

Vishal Sikka: The beauty and power of algorithms

Adaptive, intelligent, and consistent, algorithms are emerging as the ultimate app for everything from matching consumers to products to assessing medical diagnoses. Vishal Sikka shares his appreciation for the algorithm, charting both its inherent beauty and its growing power.

3. Futuro educación

3.1 Juan Freire Ecosistemas de aprendizaje y tecnologías sociales

Cuenta con casi un centenar de publicaciones en revistas científicas internacionales y ha dirigido numerosos proyectos de I+D. Ha participado en la creación de dos iniciativas empresariales de tipo spin-off (Lonxanet y Fismare) nacidas de su trabajo de investigación dentro de la universidad. Es fellow de e-Cultura, empresa dedicada a la gestión cultural, el desarrollo territorial y los procesos creativos y socio director de Laboratorio de Tendencias, un proyecto profesional desarrollado conjuntamente con Antoni Gutiérrez-Rubí, que ofrece servicios de asesoramiento, análisis y formación entorno a las nuevas tendencias y los cambios que estas pueden suponer para empresas, organizaciones o modelos de negocio.

3.2 Pedro Domingos The Master Algorithm

Machine learning is the automation of discovery, and it is responsible for making our smartphones work, helping Netflix suggest movies for us to watch, and getting presidents elected. But there is a push to use machine learning to do even more—to cure cancer and AIDS and possibly solve every problem humanity has. Domingos is at the very forefront of the search for the Master Algorithm, a universal learner capable of deriving all knowledge—past, present and future—from data. In this book, he lifts the veil on the usually secretive machine learning industry and details the quest for the Master Algorithm, along with the revolutionary implications such a discovery will have on our society.

3.3 Greg Lynn Organic algorithms in architecture

A series of revelations about building practice — «Vertical structure is overrated»; «Symmetry is bankrupt» -helped Lynn and his studio conceptualize a new approach, which uses calculus, sophisticated modeling tools, and an embrace of new manufacturing techniques to make buildings that, at their core, enclose space in the best possible way.

4. Grandes preguntas

4.1 Nick Bostrom What happens when our computers get smarter than we are?

La Inteligencia Artificial está dando grandes pasos: según los expertos, durante este siglo, la inteligencia artificial podría llegar a ser tan «inteligente» como un humano. Para que luego, dice Nick Bostrom, nos supere; en sus palabras, «la inteligencia artificial es el último invento que la humanidad tendrá que hacer». Filósofo y tecnólogo, Bostrom nos pide que pensemos seriamente en el mundo gobernado por máquinas pensantes que estamos construyendo. Estas máquinas inteligentes nos ayudarán a preservar nuestra humanidad y nuestros valores, ¿o tendrán sus propios valores?

4.2 Erik Brynjolfsson & Andrew McAfee: «The Second Machine Age»

In recent years, computers have learned to diagnose diseases, drive cars, write clean prose, and win at Jeopardy!. Advances like these have created unprecedented economic bounty, but in their wake median income has stagnated and the share of the population with jobs has fallen. MIT’s Erik Brynjolfsson and Andrew McAfee reveal the technological forces driving this reinvention of our economy and chart a path toward future prosperity. Businesses and individuals, they argue, must learn to race with machines.

4.3 Daniel Innerarity La política en la era de los limites«.

4.4 Neri Oxman Design at the Intersection of Technology and Biology

5. ¿Qué tienes que saber para vivir con esto?

5.1 Visualización

Alberto Cairo Unlocking Information: The Power of Data Visualization for Journalists, Scientists and the Rest of Us

Never before has so much data been available to the public. From crime statistics to public school test scores, citizens have the ability to access mountains of data on issues that impact their lives locally and globally. But having information isn’t the same as being informed. How can citizens use data to identify trends or pinpoint new solutions? In the past two decades, visualization—the graphical display of information— has become a skill as important as literacy or numeracy, as it is arguably the most powerful tool to help us derive meaning from the enormous amounts of data produced daily. Until recently the tools of data visualization were available only to scientists, statisticians, and designers. But now, thanks to easier and cheaper tools, data visualization is becoming a language available to everyone. Join international expert Professor Alberto Cairo to see these tools at work and see how you can apply them.

5.2 Tecno-humanismo

Andreas Ekström The Moral Bias Behind Your Search Results

Search engines have become our most trusted sources of information and arbiters of truth. But can we ever get an unbiased search result? Swedish author and journalist Andreas Ekström argues that such a thing is a philosophical impossibility. In this thoughtful talk, he calls on us to strengthen the bonds between technology and the humanities, and he reminds us that behind every algorithm is a set of personal beliefs that no code can ever completely eradicate.

5.3 Hackeo vida cotidiana

Amy Webb How I hacked online dating

Amy Webb was having no luck with online dating. The dates she liked didn’t write her back, and her own profile attracted crickets (and worse). So, as any fan of data would do: she started making a spreadsheet. Hear the story of how she went on to hack her online dating life — with frustrating, funny and life-changing results.

5.4 VR

Framestore’s Mike McGee on the power of virtual reality to invigorate storytelling

Step inside the Framestore VR Studio
