Why Federated Learning AI is the Key, w/ Nic Lane, co-founder of Flower Labs
In this episode of The People’s AI, presented by Vana, we explore one of the most promising frontiers in artificial intelligence: federated learning. We speak with Nic Lane, co-founder and Chief Scientific Officer of Flower Labs and a professor at the University of Cambridge, to unpack why decentralized AI may not only be more ethical—but more effective—than centralized systems. We dive into: •Why centralized AI may soon hit a wall due to limited data access •How federated learning enables ...
