Out of the lab: what happens when video AI meets the real world
Video AI is leaving the lab. Now it has to cope with real life.
Robots, cars, cameras and creative tools are all learning from video of the real world... so what actually happens when they meet it? We’ve brought together people from film production, robotics, AI and UK research funding to get into it properly, with the FT’s Joy Lo Dico asking the questions.
It’s also the launch night for Motion56 (Newsflare’s AI licensing division), so once the panel’s done, stay on for drinks under the glass roof... it’s an open bar.
