Stakeholders from across the global Generative Artificial Intelligence (GAI) ecosystem will have the opportunity to gain invaluable insights into the future of innovation from a world-leading space technology and global AI thought-leader at DeepFest 2024, which runs at Riyadh Exhibition and Convention Centre in Malham from March 4-7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Omar Hatamleh, the award-winning Chief Advisor for Artificial Intelligence and Innovation at Goddard Space Flight Centre and NASA\u2019s Lead for IT Strategy, will deep dive into the evolution of AI and its transformative effects during his keynote address at DeepFest, which is powered by the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) and is co-located alongside LEAP 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Hatamleh, who holds four engineering degrees, is currently responsible for creating NASA\u2019s AI strategy, and identifying and integrating cutting-edge AI and tech solutions that support NASA’s missions and goals. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With 27 years\u2019 experience at NASA, Dr Hatamleh has published more than 33 articles in international engineering journals, and has received multiple awards and recognitions from NASA, including the Silver Achievement Medal, the NASA Innovation Award and the Superior Achievement Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Hatamleh\u2019s presentation will be a major attraction at DeepFest 2024, a four-day event that is expected to attract upwards of 20,000 attendees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIn the field of AI, there are few global luminaries more qualified than Dr Hatamleh,\u201d said Michael Champion, CEO of Tahaluf, the strategic joint venture between Informa PLC, the Events Investment Fund (EIF) and the Saudi Federation for Cybersecurity, Programming and Drones (SAFCSP), which organises LEAP alongside the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology (MCIT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis is an exceptional opportunity to learn from an expert ranked among the world\u2019s Top 50 AI leaders. His immense industry understanding comes from his stellar career path, including the five years he spent as NASA\u2019s Chief Innovation Officer \u2013 Engineering, when he was tasked with empowering NASA\u2019s creative thinking to tackle moon-shot challenges and develop capacity to explore innovative ideas. With this region now expanding its own space tech horizons, Dr Hatamleh\u2019s expertise will be critical to advancing regional projects and prospects in the burgeoning space sector.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Hatamleh will share the DeepFest stage with more than 150 leading AI experts, each presenting their outlook on key topics such as GAI, robots, machine learning and the future of work. The four-day event will feature presentations, demos and fireside chats from esteemed speakers, including Dr Ramses Alcaide, President and CEO of Neurable; Alvin Wang, China President and Global VP of Corporate Development at Taiwan\u2019s HTC; Gary Sorrentino, Global CIO at Zoom; Aku Srikanth, Head of AI Evangelism, Juniper Networks and Seth Dobrin, Qantm AI, Founding Director, Silicon Sands Incubator, among others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The summit is a key feature of this year\u2019s LEAP, which is the world\u2019s most-attended tech event. For its third edition, LEAP organisers anticipate breaking the 2023 event\u2019s record turnout of 172,000-plus visitors, with an A-List cast of thought-leaders, change-makers, data scientists, innovators, enterprises, academia, start-ups and entrepreneurs exploring a themed programme journeying through the ‘dawn of AI’, ‘AI in Action’, ‘the AI Frontier’ and ‘the Shape of Things To Come’.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
