Closing out Thursday with the fantastic Kwaai Summit at SCaLE 21x, I’m looking at what is up tomorrow (including my panel) and figured I would share what I’m looking forward to or would be attending if I could.
At 10 am in room 107 is “Shared AI Recipes as Public Innovation Infrastructure“, which I sadly won’t be able to attend (I’m helping setup the Kwaai booth.) The presenter, Sean Blagsvedt, I met recently through the Kwaai project. His vision aligns well with the lessons of Open Source for the value in a shared commons via Open practices.
Another person I’ve met via Kwaai is a Board Member and long time AI researcher, Khai Pham, MD, PhD, and CEO of ThinkingNode Life . He is talking at 11:30 in Ballroom F on “From Machine Learning to Machine Reasoning and why it matters for Life Sciences“.
Coming from another direction, at 2 pm in Ballroom DE is my dear friend Gareth Greenaway, who is giving a talk on “How I Met Your Deployment Plan” as part of DevOpsDay LA. Expect something not unlike a TV show script …
For a workshop to dig into something, one that looks really good and has presenters who know how to teach is “Turn code into real-life stuff with OpenSCAD” with Kyle Davis and my old pal Tom Callaway.
You know that I would be at Corey Quinn’s talk, “Terrible Ideas in Kubernetes”, at 5 pm in Ballroom B if I weren’t scheduled elsewhere. Corey is not only drop-dead funny, he is rather brilliant about the cloud business and all the aspects around it.
Of course, if you want to hear what I have to say, at 5 pm in room 107 you can join me and my co-panelists Stephanie Lieggi and Brittany Istenes at “The OSPO POV—3 experience levels, 1 panel“. We are each with three different levels of experience with starting and running Open Source program offices (OSPOs) and will share about what we’ve learned for the Open Government audience.
