This week, watch our interview with Craig Knoblock on Shaping the Age of AI at ISI

Cloudwalkers is now on Amazon Prime Video.

Leading ISI in the Age of AI, as the institute’s fourth Executive Director, Craig Knoblock has successfully bridged multiple disciplines to leverage AI in solving complex problems. His early work on AI assistants paved the way for innovations like Siri and evolved into developing knowledge graphs, extracting data from historical maps or works of art and even fighting human trafficking with AI. Knoblock’s extensive research focuses on describing, acquiring, and exploiting the semantics of data.

As a Research Professor of both Computer Science and Spatial Sciences at USC, and Research Director of the Center on Knowledge Graphs, Knoblock’s efforts have had a profound impact on various scientific domains. His innovative projects include creating the Digital Museum of the Future in partnership with the Smithsonian, using AI to interpret and integrate vast amounts of information, and addressing pressing global issues.
