Moderator: Melissa Valentine
Plenary Talks: Human Crowds and AI

Lukas Biewald, Founder of Figure Eight and CrowdFlower
Lukas Biewald is the CEO and co-founder of Weights & Biases – a suite of developer tools for deep learning. Weights & Biases allows teams to track and record model performance, visualize and compare every run, and collaborate and share results in one application. Before Weights and Biases, Lukas founded Figure Eight, formally Crowdflower in 2009. Figure Eight was acquired by Appen in 2019.

Laura Dabbish, Carnegie Mellon University
Laura directs the Connected Experience Lab in the Human-Computer Interaction Institute at Carnegie Mellon University, where we study and build social technology and new forms of work. I have a joint appointment in the H. John Heinz III College of Public Policy, Information Systems, and Management.

She publishes her research in conferences and journals about Computer-Supported Cooperative Work, Human-Computer Interaction, Information Systems, Computer-Mediated Communications, Social Psychology and Organizational Behavior.

Walter Lasecki, University of Michigan
Walter S. Lasecki is an Assistant Professor of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he directs the Crowds+Machines (CROMA) Lab. He and his students create interactive intelligent systems that are robust enough to be used in real-world settings by combining both human and machine intelligence to exceed the capabilities of either. These systems let people be more productive, and improve access to the world for people with disabilities.

Dr. Lasecki received his Ph.D and M.S. from the University of Rochester in 2015 and a B.S. in Computer Science and Mathematics from Virginia Tech in 2010. He has previously held visiting research positions at CMU, Stanford, Microsoft Research, and Google[x].

Andrés Monroy-Hernández, Snap Inc.
Andrés Monroy-Hernández is a lead research scientist at Snap Inc., where he manages the human-computer interaction research team reporting to the company’s co-founder and CTO. He is also an affiliate faculty at the University of Washington with dual appointments in the departments of Human Centered Design & Engineering and Communications. Previously, he was a researcher at Microsoft Research for six years, where he was in the leadership team of the FUSE Labs incubation team. He holds a PhD and a master’s degree from the MIT Media Lab, and a bachelor’s in electronics engineering from the Tecnológico de Monterrey in México.

He designs and studies technologies that enable people to connect and collaborate—a field called social computing. He has created technologies used by millions of people: the Scratch website, an award-winning online community for children to learn programming; Calendar.help, Microsoft’s first human computation product; Journeys & Notes, an urban exploration app shipped under the Microsoft Garage; Sana, a healthcare app designed to help nurses in Zambia in partnership with MIT; and SFX, a tool to help researchers find scientific publications.

Recorded on June 13-14 2018 at the 7th ACM Conference on Collective Intelligence in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
