📍 Be there or be square
The core objective of this talk series is to stimulate in-person interaction in the ETH AI Center interdisciplinary AI research community, with a short talk format leaving sufficient time for discussion & kickstarting collaborations. So, there is usually no streaming or recording. Be there or be square!
