🔮 Talk Title:

“The Invisible Layer: Understanding the Intelligence Behind the Interface”


🔍 Talk Description:

Artificial intelligence is powering more of our lives than we realize—but most users never see beneath the surface. In this deep-dive keynote, Dr. Marcus Feldman demystifies how modern AI systems “think,” and why explainability, interpretability, and architectural choices matter more than ever.

With real-world examples, from chatbots to autonomous systems, Marcus will explore how seemingly small design decisions in AI can shape trust, transparency, and long-term impact. This is a must-attend for anyone building—or using—intelligent systems.

Key Takeaways:

  • Why interpretability is the next frontier in AI design

  • How architecture decisions impact ethics, bias, and performance

  • Real-world case studies from AI in healthcare, justice, and finance

  • A mental model for assessing AI systems beyond the hype


🧠 Sample Keynote Opening:

[Slide 1: Title Slide — Marcus Feldman | The Invisible Layer]

“When you open your favorite app, book a ride, or ask your digital assistant a question—you’re not talking to ‘AI.’ You’re talking to the visible layer.”


“Beneath that layer is something we rarely see. An invisible lattice of math, decisions, biases, architecture—often too complex for even the creators to fully understand. And that’s where the real power—and danger—of AI lives.”
