Why talk about AI:

Artificial Intelligence or AI has gathered a lot of interest recently. Whether it is start-ups riding the hype wave or people being wary of an intelligent machine gaining consciousness, there is misinformation and misunderstanding around the implications of AI in our every day lives. To find out more on how Artificial Intelligence can disrupt, i.e. change something established, our industries and processes, Far Ventures has brought together five experienced professionals in the AI industry:

  • Jacques Ludik : Founder & President of the Machine Intelligence Institute of Africa (MIIA); Founder & CEO of CortexLogic; Founder & CTO of Bennit.ai
  • Frans Cronje: Managing Director of DataProphet
  • Ryan Falkenberg : Co-CEO of Clevva
  • Alex Conway : Founder & CTO of NumberBoost
  • Antoine Paillusseau : Co-Founder of FinChatBot

The discussion, mediated by Romain Diaz (Co-Founder & CEO of Far Ventures), will cover a variety of subjects relevant to entrepreneurs, corporates and tech-enthusiasts looking to learn more about AI’s potential applications in business. So come on over to our offices to meet interesting people over a stimulating debate (with a few complimentary drinks)!
