The workshop will consist of AISI technical presentations and interactive breakout discussions to inform the development of a taxonomy of tools that a foundation model may use to take actions in environments, providing a valuable shared vocabulary for future work across the ecosystem.

Drawing on a new Cornell Tech report, The Augmented City: Seeing Through Disruption, this session will explore how AI and augmented reality (AR) innovations could reshape infrastructure planning and management – from maintenance crews accessing real-time utility data to citizens visualizing proposed development impacts on their neighborhoods. We’ll explore how transit officials in Columbus, Ohio recently used AR to help win support for a ground-breaking bus rapid transit (BRT) project, and how local governments can proactively develop policies and partnerships that harness AR’s potential while protecting public spaces and privacy.

Join DevOps Engineer Michael Sprague on Tuesday, February 11, 2025 for an AI-focused workshop for web developers. During the workshop Michael will evaluate three different AI tools designed for building web apps and interfaces, and discuss how they can shorten your time from concept to prototype. Hear about the strengths and shortcomings of v0, Bolt, and Replit Agent.

In this talk, Zhao will emphasize the importance of building scalable systems across the entire ML pipeline. In particular, Zhao will explore how large-scale ML training pipelines, including those deployed at Meta, require distributed data storage and ingestion systems to manage massive training datasets. Optimizing these data systems is essential as data demands continue to grow. To achieve this, Zhao will demonstrate how synergistic optimizations across the training data pipeline can unlock performance and efficiency gains beyond what isolated system optimizations can achieve.

Enjoy an afternoon of insights from industry leaders and faculty, and reconnect with classmates, fellow alumni, and current JCT MBA students.
