Intelligence as a material
In this talk, Simone will not share how to make your life easier by using AI, but actually quite the opposite.
Based on the work and research of the past few years with oio, he will share how they’ve been experimenting with Artificial Intelligence, not just as a tool to simplify and streamline processes, but actually as a starting point to design unimaginable products.
