Agentic AI: Shaping the Future of Autonomy, Innovation, and Society
Agentic AI represents a groundbreaking shift in artificial intelligence, enabling systems to act autonomously, make decisions, and achieve goals with minimal human intervention. This talk explores the concept of Agentic AI, its various types, adoption trends, and the transformative impact it is poised to have on industries and societies. From reshaping workflows to influencing ethical frameworks, we’ll examine how this emerging technology drives innovation and redefines humanity’s relationship with intelligent systems.

Biography:
Srinivasa received his Ph. D. from the University of Florida in Gainesville in 1994 and was Beckman Post-Doctoral Fellow in the Human Computer Intelligent Interaction group at the Beckman Institute, University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign from 1994-1997. Between 1998-2015, he was with HRL Laboratories in Malibu CA where he became Principal Scientist and the Director for Neural and Emergent Systems. At HRL, he worked on a wide range of AI projects for Boeing, GM, and the US Government, including visual perception and computer vision, signal processing and sensor fusion, brain-inspired computing, and robotics. He joined Intel Labs in 2016 as Chief Scientist to lead the development of neuromorphic technology and played a key role in the development of the Loihi neuromorphic chip. He is currently Senior Principal AI Engineer and Director for Machine Intelligence Research Programs at Intel Labs. He is responsible for accelerating Intel Labs research on problems with high risk but also with a potential for high reward to Intel. He has 126 issued US patents and over 100 articles in journals, magazines, and conferences. He is a Fellow of the IEEE.
