Title: Symbiotic Human-AI Interaction: Examples and Discussion

Zoom

Abstract: In this talk, I will present work on human-AI interaction, in which humans and AI complement each other in data and knowledge to effectively achieve tasks. I will discuss AI agents in robotics and in the financial domain able to continuously learn from experience. I will conclude with examples of the use of Generative AI to code and reason.
