Summary
Current AI architectures are ill-suited to situations where there are many data holders and stakeholders, in part because they copy data to use in learning algorithms (thus posing attack risk and making control of data difficulty) and in part because sharing data between partners risks leaking of proprietary and private data. Prof. Alex 'Sandy' Pentland will talk about federated data and learning methods, including those that use only encrypted data, that are intrinsically more secure than today's typical AI methods.
