The annual event will take place on Wednesday, June 5th, 2019, on the 64^th floor of the One World Trade Center in New York City.

This year's ai.nyc will focus on why AI, alone, is not enough to solve problems at scale. The ai.nyc speakers will dive into the recipe for scalable business problem solving, including robust AI, intelligent engineering and smart design, highlighting how the combination of human intelligence with machine intelligence is the most powerful solution to improve overall business performance, in any sector.

"Leading Fortune 500 companies know that AI strategies are needed in order to stay ahead of the competition," said Francis Slavich, Chief Sales Officer, Fractal Analytics. "However, many business leaders are still not exactly sure how they should apply AI to reap the most substantial rewards. That's where ai.nyc comes in. Our exclusive event will tackle head-on the most important AI business problems and set a benchmark for AI problem solving that will drive forward AI success, no matter the industry."

Cathy O'Neil, author of The New York Times best seller - Weapons of Math Destruction: How Big Data Increases Inequality and Threatens Democracy, will be the keynote speaker. During the day, senior industry leaders will share how AI, engineering and design is enabling them to free up cognitive capacity to focus on important areas.
