Special Featured Guest: Sanjay Gupta, Chief Technology Officer, Small Business Administration 

This month’s virtual presenter is Sanjay Gupta, Chief Technology Officer at the Small Business Administration. The Artificial Intelligence market landscape is growing rapidly. Increasing cloud adoption has made it simpler to access large data sets at relatively low costs, which in turn has enabled increased use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence solutions. As a leading and well recognized innovator in the federal government, Sanjay has led the use of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence solutions. He has helped simplify the Artificial Intelligence landscape by defining two categories – Creators and Consumers of Artificial Intelligence.

In this session, Sanjay will describe these two categories and define why the distinction is important in the AI discussion. Often the two get inter-mingled leading to confusion. He will cover the aspects that are relevant for Creators and similarly, relevant aspects for Consumers and why recognizing which category one belongs to is critical. Further, Sanjay will cover use cases of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity, Natural Language Processing, Forms processing, Algorithmic based decision support, and more.

Special Featured Guest: Jerry Ma, Director of Emerging Technology at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)

This month’s virtual presenter is Jerry Ma, Director of Emerging Technology at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO)! The USPTO is unique among federal agencies in its multifaceted involvement with the AI ecosystem. Consistent with its constitutional and statutory role, the Office fosters innovation in AI by the provision of strong intellectual property (IP) grants and the promulgation of sound IP policy. The Office also looks toward AI to improve operational efficiency and empower our highly-skilled Examining Corps. Finally, the Office contributes back to the AI community as one of the leading Open Data agencies, with hundreds of terabytes of scientific and technical data made freely available to researchers and technologists.

In this presentation, Jerry will survey recent AI developments at the Office, including patent classification, prior art search, image analysis, and the use of Office data in state-of-the-art AI research. Jerry will also touch on the promising future of AI at the agency and in the IP world at large.

Special Featured Guest: Robert Brown, Chief Technology Officer at US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

This month’s virtual presenter is Robert Brown, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) at the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). At this featured event, Rob will explore how data has become critically important to AI, especially at the USCIS. He will share his experiences with data preparation for AI and ML applications, challenges for AI and ML training on quality data, and current applications and best practices for data preparation and data augmentation.

Rob will also share some of his organization’s struggles and thoughts around operationalizing AI and ML across the organization. He will share why knowing how to identify and address operational and adoption issues will be key for successful AI/ML adoption. This includes managing human expectations of what AI systems can and can’t do, and how humans deal with intelligent systems, including addressing their fears and concerns.

Join us for this interactive presentation with Rob followed by your questions and interaction.
