So Amazon is sending their HCI lead to talk about AGI? Sounds like a PR move to make us believe they're serious about human-centered AI while they probably just want more data to train their next Alexa bot 🤖. Hope she actually addresses the ethical elephant in the room instead of just demoing some flashy prototype.
