ML:Integrity will feature industry leaders highlighting the importance of eliminating risk in AI systems
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Robust Intelligence, a machine learning and artificial intelligence model integrity company, will be hosting the first annual conference on Machine Learning Integrity, ML:Integrity, on Wednesday, October 19, 2022. The event will be the first of its kind, bringing together industry leaders with expertise in ML and data science from Fortune 500 companies, the US government, and cutting-edge technology innovators across a variety of industries to discuss the impact of AI adoption on business and society.
Machine learning models often produce erroneous predictions as a result of their sensitivity to subtle changes in data. As these models are used to automate such decisions as credit worthiness, healthcare coverage, and hiring practices, prediction errors can have dire consequences. In light of this, companies are actively building strategies and engineering paradigms to instill machine learning integrity in their systems. ML:Integrity will serve as a forum for industry leaders to share their perspectives and best practices on these concepts, as well as advocate for the adoption of a comprehensive set of industry standards throughout the AI community.
“We’re honored to host the inaugural event on machine learning integrity. We’re fortunate to be joined by AI’s most prominent business and industry leaders who are creating machine learning integrity paradigms in their own organizations and are willing to share their experience and perspectives,” says Yaron Singer, CEO and co-founder of Robust Intelligence. “Instilling integrity in ML systems unleashes the full potential of AI without potential negative consequences to organizations and people affected by automated decision making.”
Some of the featured ML Integrity speakers at the conference include:
Jack Berkowitz, Chief Data Officer, ADP
Keith Sonderling, Commissioner, US Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
Ed Bowen, Managing Director, AI Center of Excellence, Deloitte
Rohit Chauhan, EVP of Artificial Intelligence, Mastercard
Hui Wang, VP of Data Science & Machine Learning, PayPal
“We are thrilled to be partnering with these companies who care deeply about ensuring the integrity of their machine learning systems, and understand the urgency in doing so,” said Kojin Oshiba, co-founder of Robust Intelligence, who will participate in the panel alongside Singer.
The mission of this unprecedented meeting of the minds is to offer education, inspiration, and progress toward furthering the cause of ML Integrity. With the ever-increasing importance of intelligent applications in our lives, the need for reliability, safety, and trust in these systems has never been greater.

America's tech giants are taking a modern-day crash course in India's ancient caste system, with Apple emerging as an early leader in policies to rid Silicon Valley of a rigid hierarchy that's segregated Indians for generations. Apple, the world's biggest listed company, updated its general employee conduct policy about two years ago to explicitly prohibit discrimination on the basis of caste, which it added alongside existing categories such as race, religion, gender, age and ancestry. The inclusion of the new category, which hasn't been previously reported, goes beyond U.S. discrimination laws, which do not explicitly ban casteism.

Why are eggs so expensive now? The average price of a dozen large, Grade A eggs was $2.94 in July, up 38% from the same period last year at $1.64, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The price of eggs has been trending upward since the beginning of 2022, and egg experts said an avian influenza outbreak that has severely limited the supply of eggs was the leading cause of high prices.
A federal judge in California has signed off on Apple Inc.'s $30.5 million settlement in a nearly decade-old lawsuit claiming the company shortchanged 15,000 retail workers by not paying them for time spent in security checks after their shifts. U.S. District Judge William Alsup in San Francisco approved the settlement in the 2013 class action on Saturday. The California Supreme Court in 2020 used the case to rule that state law requires employees to be paid when they go through mandatory security screenings.

Since then, Congress announced it is making changes to the $7,500 federal electric vehicle tax credit, meaning that it becomes much harder to get that sweet, sweet tax deduction. The two major changes are that the tax credit will becomes means-tested (i.e., if your household makes more than a certain amount, you don't qualify) and sticker-price limited (cars over $40,000 and SUVs and trucks with a slightly higher limit). Various car manufacturers have scrambled to figure out how to react, but VinFast is taking more extreme steps than most, promising that if you have a preorder with the manufacturer and you are no longer eligible for the tax rebate, they'll give you a $7,500 discount on the car instead.
Knowing how much you need for retirement is multi-factored: It’s not just about how much you saved, it’s also about knowing how much you will spend on a monthly basis. “Typically, people need around 70% to 80% of the pre-retirement income in retirement to maintain a lifestyle,” says certified financial planner Spencer Betts of Bickling Financial Services.
