Element AI, the world\u2019s largest applied AI research lab, announced this week that it will launch the inaugural edition of The AI Forum in partnership with the C2 Montre\u0301al international commerce and creativity conference in May.<\/p>\n
\u201cEvery year, leaders from all over the world come to C2 Montre\u0301al to shift their perspective and explore new ways of doing business,\u201d says Richard St-Pierre, President of C2. \u201cAI is the next frontier.”<\/p>\n

\u201cArtificial Intelligence can only be as smart as the network dedicated to its creation and growth\u2014that\u2019s why Element AI is partnering with C2 this May,\u201d explains Gagne\u0301. \u201cTogether, we\u2019re going to bring the best and brightest people in the educational, creative and commercial space for a discussion around Artificial Intelligence and its impact on the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
Curated by Jean-Franc\u0327ois Gagne\u0301 and preeminent AI researcher, deep learning pioneer and Element AI co-founder Yoshua Bengio, The AI Forum will explore the vast capabilities inherent in AI while peering into the future of what may be possible.<\/p>\n
The AI Forum attendees will have access to masterclasses and workshops designed to help them dig deeper into specific issues and opportunities with the help of world-leading AI experts, as well as access to brainstorming sessions, connection mechanisms and celebrations.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs the AI space advances, it is important to bring together leaders in the scientific, business and political communities in order to find the best ways to promote positive discussion that creates beneficial, meaningful development of these technologies,\u201d says Bengio. \u201cAs I think of AI as helping minds, events like C2 enable the best minds to get together and discuss how we all can succeed on a geometric scale.\u201d<\/p>\n
