@startaiconf Thanks to you and your team for organising the #StartAI event today. Great speakers, #AI topics, demo (by @geoffreyhinton ) and conversations in and outside the conference room. Enjoyed checking out the sponsor booths and displays. #UAIG#UofT Whats next?
Had the pleasure of attending the #startai undergraduate conference for the second year, and being able to talk with the leaders in the artificial intelligence field.
Also the tetrahedron demo was hilarious.
Typical Geoff Hinton -
Opens with a vote to speak on 1 of 2 topics, and chooses the one he wants anyway 🤷♂️
Not unlike his talk last year at #StartAI 😂
Advice to founders:
- Health before wealth. Optimize for sustainability, which means taking care of your family, friends and wellbeing
- What are you optimizing for? Max pride, min regret by 80 years old?
- Don't make it binary (this vs. that). Choose fulfills you?
#StartAI
How do we stop the Canadian brain drain?
Keep doing what we're ALREADY doing, providing:
- Great healthcare
- Inclusive, diverse culture
- Opportunities to scale ALL people, not just founders or devs

Great to hear Canada's leading role in AI development and its exploding growth trajectory.
Don't forget to stop by our booth at @NEXT_Canada#Next36
Sometimes timing can be EVERYTHING
Canada, US and UK were the top 3 places for #AI. Just as AI was heating up, Brexit and the Trump election happened and Canada quickly became the choice to live, work and prosper 🇨🇦
