SUMMARY:[CML Seminar] Guy Van den Broeck: AI can Learn from Data. But can i
 t Learn to Reason?
LOCATION:Donald Bren Hall 4011
DESCRIPTION:Guy Van den Broeck\, Associate Professor of Computer Science\, 
 University of California\, Los Angeles\n\nTitle: AI can Learn from Data. B
 ut can it Learn to Reason?\n\nAbstract: Many expect that AI will go from p
 owering chatbots to providing mental health services\, from advertisement 
 to deciding who is given bail. The expectation is that AI will solve socie
 ty's problems by simply being more intelligent than we are. Implicit in th
 is bullish perspective is the assumption that AI will naturally learn to r
 eason from data: that it can form trains of thought that make sense\, simi
 lar to how a mental health professional or judge might reason about a case
 \, or how a mathematician might prove a theorem. This talk will investigat
 e whether this behavior can be learned from data\, and how we can design t
 he next generation of AI techniques that can achieve such capabilities\, f
 ocusing on neuro-symbolic learning and tractable deep generative models.\n
