DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Ojelanki NgwenyamaTitle:Can Generative AI Contribute 
 to both productivity gains and humanFlourishing? Findings from research on
  GitHub Copilot use in SoftwareDevelopmentAbstract:Artificial Intelligence
  (AI)\, particularly Generative ArtificialIntelligence (GAI)\, has profoun
 dly transformed the professionallandscape. These technologies present new 
 opportunities to enhanceproductivity\, potentially offsetting the societal
  risks they pose.This study aims to assess whether GAI contributes to sati
 sfaction atwork and whether some of this improvement can be explained bypr
 oductivity gains\, human flourishing and reduced frustration whenusing GAI
 . We recruited 218 participants from Orange\, (a French globalcompany)\, a
 nd conducted weekly questionnaires (over 10-weeks) ofsoftware developers u
 sing GitHub Copilot. To explore the data\, weemployed the CHAID (Chi-squar
 e Automatic Interaction Detection) methodand ANOVA analyses to investigate
  the use of GitHub Copilot by thesoftware developers. Our findings show th
 at using GitHub Copilotboosted developers' productivity\, their sense of f
 lourishing at work\,reduced their frustration and increased their satisfac

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jonathan Shock\n\nTitle: The past\, present and futur
 e of AI at UCT\n\nAbstract:\n\nIn this seminar\, I will discuss the work u
 ndertaken over the last year\nby a large group of people to set up an AI I
 nstitute at UCT\, and I\nwill discuss the future plans for this large Univ
 ersity focus. I will\ntalk about where we currently stand in the AI landsc
 ape\, and the\nopportunities we have to become a true continental leader i
 n AI for\nsocial good. A part of the seminar will also cover existing\nopp
 ortunities within the University for integrating AI into research\nworkflo
 ws\, which arose from a short internship at the African\nMicroscopy Instit
 ute.\n\nBiography:\n\nJonathan Shock is an Associate Professor in the Depa
 rtment of Maths\nand Applied Maths at the University of Cape Town\, where 
 I direct the\nUCT AI Initiative. I am also an Adjunct Professor at INRS Mo
 ntréal.\nMy work spans theoretical physics\, reinforcement learning\, and
 \ncomputational neuroscience\, with a focus on understanding intelligence\
 nas a dynamical and physical process. I am particularly interested in\nrei
 nforcement learning\, multi-agent systems\, and theory-driven AI for\nscie
 nce. Much of my research explores how mathematical structure —\nfrom sta
 tistical mechanics to dynamical systems — can inform the\ndesign and ana
 lysis of learning systems.  I completed my PhD at the\nUniversity of Sout
 hampton in 2005 on applications of string theory to\nquantum chromodynamic
 s\, followed by postdoctoral appointments in\nBeijing\, Santiago de Compos
 tela\, and Munich before joining UCT in\n2013.  I supervise across mathem
 atics\, machine learning\, and\ninterdisciplinary AI\, and am deeply commi
 tted to teaching and building\nresearch capacity.

DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Francois Meyer\n\nTitle:\n\nData-Efficient Language M
 odelling for Low-Resource Languages\n\nAbstract:\n\nProgress in language m
 odelling has been driven by scaling data and\nmodel size\, but this approa
 ch is not feasible for most African\nlanguages. In this talk\, I will pres
 ent our work on developing\ndata-efficient language models - architectures
  and training algorithms\nthat improve performance on limited training dat
 a. I will present\nexamples of how linguistically informed modelling\, whi
 ch targets and\nleverages the linguistic properties of specific languages\
 , can improve\nsample efficiency. Finally\, I will discuss the emerging in
 tersection\nbetween low-resource NLP and developmentally inspired NLP\, ex
 ploring\nhow insights from human language learning can help us build more\
 nefficient models.\n\nBiography:\n\nFrancois Meyer is a Lecturer in the Co
 mputer Science Department at the\nUniversity of Cape Town and co-investiga
 tor in the UCT NLP research\ngroup. His research is on data-efficient lang
 uage modelling and\nlinguistically informed sub-word tokenisation. He comp
 leted his PhD at\nthe University of Cape Town and previously obtained a ma
 sters in AI at\nthe University of Amsterdam.
