Amii’s Virtual AI Meetup is a monthly event where AI researchers, professionals and enthusiasts gather to learn and chat about AI-related topics.

The September 20, 2022 edition of the Meetup highlighted two projects featured in Amii’s annual Impact Report. Hosted by Amii CEO Cam Linke, the event featured:

  • James R. Wright (Fellow & Canada CIFAR AI Chair at Amii; Assistant Professor – University of Alberta) on how AI can help reduce the spread of disinformation on social media platforms.

  • Payam Mousavi (Applied Research Scientist at Amii) on Calgary-based robotics company Attabotics, and how Amii is helping them improve their innovative warehousing sortation and fulfillment system with machine learning.
