“It’s up to us to make it good. That’s very true for the area of machine learning.” @bhorowitz makes the case for AI's potential as a positive societal force, citing non-invasive cancer diagnosis tools as just the start.

Advice from @bhorowitz to aspiring entrepreneurs: "Don’t underestimate the experience that you don’t have. Experience does matter.” “Trust is fundamental to business leadership.” “It takes a lot of discipline to be honest consistently.”

"You’re not the most famous person I’ve been on stage with. That would be @djkhaled.” AI@The House Faculty Partner Michael I. Jordan gets a laugh from the crowd as he starts his eagerly awaited fireside chat with special guest @bhorowitz.

"If you can’t figure out the business side, you will lose." "Execution separates the successes from the failures." @databricks co-founders Ali Ghodsi and Ion Stoica share lessons learned with moderator Anna Patterson, Gradient Ventures Founder & Managing Partner teapawt.net/jfiance/status/9813588…
