• Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to make AI think and reason in a more human-like fashion. This involves integrating individual cognitive functions, such as object recognition and reasoning enabled by machine learning, deep learning and computer vision technologies, to build AI models that can generalise learnings and perform well even in unexpected situations.
• Resilient & Safe AI to develop safer and more robust AI models which are capable of recovering from data distribution shifts. These AI models will be critically important to safety-critical applications such as self-driving vehicles and automated disease diagnoses, which are increasingly being used.
• Sustainable AI to look at how carbon emissions and computing power consumption from AI models can be reduced via more resource- and data-efficient AI. Researchers will also look at how AI can be leveraged to tackle environmental and climate challenges through digital modelling and simulation.

The event wrapped up with a panel discussion from the esteemed speakers from IEEE CIS (Computational Intelligence Society) and NTU (Nanyang Technological University), with the topic on The Frontier of AI and CI.
