Fei-Fei seeing worlds of humanity's greatest intelligence ecosystem linker since neumann-einstein-turing

AI probably would not be what King Charles has called the most exciting opportunity humanity has ever seen without DR Fei-Fei Li. To clarify:

big tech has been accelerating its consequences on all of us as digital computation and webs have surrounded us but it was Li who designed an open competition on training smart devices to recognised the 20000 identiies we humans work and play with most - from nature's animals vegetables and minerals to tools and man made constructs of every kind though to parts of the body and body language - eg facial expressions which can indicate how individuals or crowds are being energised. She was one of two 20-something graduate students who recoonected neuro-cyber science with the expectations of 1950s NET (Neumann Einstein Ruring) who gave humanity brainworking machines. The POther was demis hassabis who has trained computers to help humans see the 250000 proteins that nature uses as building blocks of every living form. There were primarily 3 teachers Lecun Hinton Bengio whos studnets developed maths algoritjms needed to bring Li's 15 years of work from an idea to reality. Having seen machines could be trained the way Li and Abed have advanced,    in the last few years huge investments have been put into the superchats or large language models which identofy with potentially every publication or expert briefiing ever reocdred. While LLMs are exciting to chat with already I wouldnt let my life depend on one fpor perhaps 10 years as nobody quite knows when   there will be a missing link in their learning sometimes of quite a basic sort

Meanwhile most of Li's (and perhaps thousands of people who have built on her identity) work can be certified as reliable (although there are others who deliberately abuse good ai just as since teh start of the web age we have had to content with spam, bad hackers and indeed automation of dangerous things such as arms. However please note that big tech has arguably been doing more of the bad stuff than anything that has emerged because of Li. Also her work can be looked at in specific ways as well as the general opportunity to get machines to help with anything we humans surround ourseleves with

Frtom 2015 sponsored firts by melinda gates and jensen hiang builder of the biggest chips, Li has distributed at least 10 education curricul- some like dnace and art can be enjoyed by 1st grade students and teachers up - in fact any age arts can start to be enjoyed. Others introduce ethoics and emotionally intelligent chalenges- before LI came alomng some teachers had decoded these kinds of skills are important from around 3rd grade up. Basically anything whoch involves learning or serving in teams benefits from desigbing ways to prevent chets or bullies spoiling life for the rest of us. And yes some involve the maths (neural netwiorking) algorithms most needed to be a 21st C engineer. Some of the applications Fei-fei li has spent most time on include health service  and national development opportunities NAIRR but most of all she has enbcouraged every university discipline to renew how i can advance humanity - she co-leads stanfird HAI - human centric AI. 

She also supports deep diversity of engineering - femle engineers, bridging digital divides across all skin cvolors or communities that tech has previously missed out. Melinda Gates started publishing the world's most extroridnary library on women empowering the wporld 3 years- this school years's additions are Fei-Fei Li's worlds i see and womens basketbvall supoer AJa Wilsdon - dear black girls. Can every child now twin traditional celebrities with those who will help them develop the most from life - the opportunity many have called the rtevolution in education soon to be realsies- everyone having their own personalised ;erning agent.

- my view I believe strongly all of us, especially those creating, deploying, and making decisions using AI, should work to ensure a human-centered approach. I know it's hard — I feel the challenges as an AI technologist, a woman of color, and an immigrant every day. But I wrote my book worlds i see for the younger generations, and we need to continue to inspire hope for all of them.

Love this piece in The Wall Street Journal with Stanford University School of Medicine Dean Lloyd Minor discussing our exciting collaboration on the RAISE-Health Initiative. As he points out, AI will revolutionize how physicians are trained, how biomedical research is conducted, and how healthcare is delivered. We MUST build responsible AI that will ensure safe and equitable healthcare for all.
\\10/7 
My conversation with Geoffrey Hinton yesterday at University of Toronto covered a wide range of topics, moderated by our wonderful friend Jordan Jacobs. We discussed the early history of ImageNet and the AlexNet moment, our intertwined scientific journeys toward the dream of building an intelligent machine and unleashing the deep learning revolution in 2012, and the years between 2012 and 2022 where we saw the unfolding of the powerful AI technologies as insiders. We also talked about the profound human and societal impact this powerful technology brings to our world, both the positive possibilities but also the sobering catastrophic risks, including economic changes, dis/misinformation, bias and privacy issues, weaponization, and beyond. Geoff and I enjoyed the conversation so much that we said we should start a tour and travel around and give talks as a duo! And we even managed to have some fun aside from talking AI. Thanks to Radical Ventures for hosting!

LI on NPR

https://www.npr.org/2023/11/10/1198908536/fei-fei-li-the-worlds-i-s... Li was fascinated by vision.

"Rather than bury us in the innumerable details of light, color and form, vision turns our world into the kind of discrete concepts we can describe with words," she writes in her book.

Li later learned about a field of AI called computer vision, or the way scientists train computers to recognize and respond to objects. It's used for things like self-driving cars and x-rays. Li says the process is inspired by the human visual system – but instead of eyes and retinas, computers use cameras and sensors to capture images and data. Then, they need to make sense of that data.

To achieve this goal, computer scientists use something called a neural network, which Li says is also inspired by the human brain. While the brain's fundamental unit is a neuron, neural networks are made of millions of "nodes" stacked together in layers. Like neurons in the brain, these layers of nodes take in and process that data.

The mystery of machine intelligence

Despite advances in the field, Li says there are still mysteries about how AI learns.

"Now everybody uses powerful AI products like Chat GPT," she says. "But even there, how come it can talk to you in human-like language, but it does stupid errors in math?"

Li says this generation of AI models is trained on data from across the internet, but how all of that data is processed and how models make decisions is still unknown.

To illustrate this point, she rhetorically asks how computers see, "Because what you get in a photo are just lights and colors and shades — yet you read out a cat."

These questions will only continue to grow as the use of AI becomes more widespread and more researchers enter the field.

Keeping AI ethical

Mystery aside, Li says AI can be used for bad or good. In order to ensure it's used for good, she says scientists must commit to exploring potential problems with AI, like bias.

One solution, she thinks, is for society to start coming up with ways to regulate the technology.

"The biggest issue of today's AI is that the technology is developing really fast, but the governance model is still incomplete. And in a way, it's inevitable," she says. "I don't think we ever create governance models before a technology is ready to be governed. That's just not how our society works."

One solution, she says, is to use AI to enhance human work rather than replace it. This is one reason why she founded the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence and why she thinks the future of AI should include both scientists and non-scientists from all disciplines.

"We should put humans in the center of the development, as well as the deployment applications and governance of AI," Li says.

Its charming to see fei-fei li's development both in terms of personal knowledge and the contexts she is questioned in-most notably from 2009 landing stanford with her princeton doctorate and some nsf funds to run an annual neuroscience computer vision competition imagent, the research open process without which AI would still likely be locked away as only a big corporate tool 

In some ways li has seen more contexts than anyone having been the coordinator of how computers visioned 20000 identities spanning any discipline humans work or play with- she ran imagenet from 2009 annually out of stanfird but as a worldwide competition

it was italy's 2012 competition whihc provided the breakthrough as team hinton (alex and ilya) alogoritm based on neural networks made a giant leap in recognition - people like nvidioa's ceo jensen huang say this motovated him spennding next 5 y years building the woeld's biggest chip (in 2023 with 80 nbillion trnsistors).

Fei-Fei Li, Sequoia Professor in the Computer Science Department and Co-Director of Stanford HAI.

Asking Big Questions, Applying New Policies

One of my hopes for 2024 is that we can have the wherewithal to continue to ask the hard questions, the critical questions about what we want from artificial intelligence in our lives, in our communities, in education, in our society. I don't think we've ever seen a year quite like this. More and more kinds of this generative AI technology are going to embed themselves and entrench into our work, play and communication. How does this year make us feel about ourselves? 

I think we need to give ourselves the time and space to articulate what we think is permissible and where we should put the limits. One of the first realizations regarding this current generation of AI was back in February 2023 when (academic journal publisher) Springer Publishing issued a statement in which they said large language models can be used in drafting articles, but will not be permitted as a coauthor on any publication. And the rationale they cited, and I think this is so important, is accountability. That doesn't mean Springer is locked into this forevermore. But that’s so critical: putting something out there in earnest, understanding what your rationales are, and saying this is where we are right now with the way we understand it and in the future we may add more nuances into these policies. And I think that institutions and organizations must have that perspective and try to put guidelines down on a page in 2024.

Past Highlighted Projects

Research

JackRabbot

Our work at the SVL is making practical a new generation of autonomous agents that can operate safely alongside humans in dynamic crowded environments such as terminals, malls, or campuses. The Stanford “Jackrabbot”, which takes it name from the nimble yet shy Jackrabbit, is a self-navigating automated electric delivery cart capable of carrying small payloads.

Research

ActivityNet

Our benchmark aims at covering a wide range of complex human activities that are of interest to people in their daily living. We illustrate three scenarios in which ActivityNet can be used to compare algorithms for human activity understanding: global video classification, trimmed activity classification and activity detection.

Research

Visual Genome

Short Description: To achieve success at cognitive tasks, models need to understand the interactions and relationships between objects in an image. Visual Genome is a new dataset to connect dense, structured image concepts to language.

Research

ObjectNet3D

ObjectNet3D is a large scale database for 3D object recognition. With 90,127 images, 201,888 objects in these images and 44,147 3D shapes, ObjectNet3D offers a powerful tool for learning to recognize 3D pose and 3D shape of objects from 2D images.

Research

ImageNet Challenge

The ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC) evaluates algorithms for object detection and image classification at large scale. One high level motivation is to allow researchers to compare progress in computer vision across a wider variety of objects -- taking advantage of the quite expensive labeling efforts.

Research

ImageNet

ImageNet is an image database organized according to the WordNet hierarchy (currently only the nouns), in which each node of the hierarchy is depicted by hundreds and thousands of images. As the largest labelled image data set at the time of its release in 2009, ImageNet has helped to pave the way for today’s advances in visual recognition.

Could Queen Victoria change empire fro slavemaking to commonwealth? Some say Victoria liked the challenge James set her, others that she gave him a poison pill assignment. Thus James arrived in Calcutta 1860 with the Queens permission to charter a bank by and for Indian people. Within 9 months he died of diarrhea. 75 years later Calcutta was where the Young Fazle Abed grew up - his family accounted for some of the biggest traders. Only to be partitioned back at age 11 to his family's home region in the far north east of what had been British Raj India but was now to be ruled by Pakistan for 25 years.
