Discover some of our tech talks!

We’re proud to introduce you our keynoters:

Douglas Crockford

with his talk “Concerning Modules” – Our systems are bloated, buggy, unmaintainable, and all too often too slow. It is well understood that the solution is modularity, but modularity itself is not well understood. What is modularity? How can we recognize it? How can a better understanding of modularity help us to make better programs? The answers to these questions can be found in The Lost Wisdom of the Seventies.

Jarno Duursma

with his talk “Artificial intelligence and human identity” – The trend is crystal clear: we have entered an era in which computersystems have become self-learning. And systems of this kind are acquiring more and more skills that we have so far regarded as purely human. Intelligent systems that can hear, see, read and speak. But they can also recognise people’s emotions; ever better and more refined. These developments have led to doubt about who we are and how we should relate to new technology. What skills are we willing to lose and outsource to new technology? How do we guard our human identity in an ever faster changing digital world?
