AI that thinks like humans

Animesh Koratana
Artificial intelligence researcher and rising high school senior Animesh Koratana envisions a world where medical research on the human brain for cures to diseases ranging from depression to bi-polar to schizophrenia can be done on artificially created brains that think and behave just like human brains. He shares the first breakthrough in this short talk. Animesh Koratana’s interests lie in using computational neuroscience and artificial intelligence to help solve the largest problems facing A.I. and medicine today. His research on fluid intelligence has attracted the interest of the NSA for a possible application in curbing cyberterrorism attacks.

Margaret Weniger, Career Story Collector

Margaret Weniger

What if everything you’ve been taught about building a successful career no longer applies?

Margaret Weniger has spent years exploring that question from both sides of the table. As director of entrepreneurial programs for CREATE-X at Georgia Institute of Technology, she helps founders navigate uncertainty while building companies designed for the future. As a technology sales executive, leadership strategist and author of “Broken,” she has interviewed hundreds of professionals, founders and executives to understand why some people emerge from career disruption stronger than before.

Margaret’s work sits at the intersection of entrepreneurship, leadership and the changing nature of work. Drawing from her own unconventional career and years of research, she challenges long-held assumptions about success, ambition and what it really takes to build a meaningful career in a world that refuses to stand still.

At TEDxAtlanta, Margaret invites us to rethink one of the most familiar ideas about work. The answer may change not only how you think about your career, but also how you approach whatever comes next.
