About this talk

The Causal AI Conference 2022: Establishing Partnerships for the Learning of Causal Relationships in Medicine Nicholas Chia Associate Professor, Mayo Clinic The talk will introduce the problems with ‘vanilla AI’ (non-causal AI), providing some thought-provoking examples. Nick will then discuss the implications for ethics and fairness and present his cutting-edge work on “The Unreasonable Effectiveness of Inverse Reinforcement Learning in Advancing Cancer Research”. “Can we use causal inference methods to understand the molecular basis of cancer?” Nick will deliberate on this important question and attempt to answer it through interesting examples. Several of the applications of Causality to medicine and healthcare will be presented, including exciting work carried out with NASA.

causaLens is the pioneer of Causal AI—a giant leap in machine intelligence. Today’s machine learning algorithms extract correlations from data and predict outcomes based on patterns in past data. Correlations are useful for making predictions, but they’re of little use for decisions. Causal AI goes beyond predictions by understanding the actual causes behind an outcome and quantifying the impact of different interventions. It is the only form of machine intelligence that can answer “Why?”. causaLens builds Causal AI-powered products that empower all users to make superior decisions and drive business value. Leading organisations across a wide range of industries trust causaLens with their most important decisions.
