AiLab = Artificial Intelligence Laboratory
AiLab (Artificial Intelligence Laboratory) assists organisations with navigating the Artificial Intelligence (AI) landscape and learning about the exciting field of AI. We have helped thousands of people within industry, government, community and academia across the globe in their AI journey via our world-class AI education, talks, research and advisory services. We help individuals and organisations to understand what AI is, develop AI skills and capability, and build effective strategies for implementing AI to become AI ready.
Co-founded by Dr. John Flackett (Head) and Emma Berry, AiLab has clients around the world with offices in Southampton (United Kingdom), in Adelaide (South Australia) and within Auckland University of Technology (New Zealand). Passionate about AI and with a vast AI background, AiLab is built on decades of teaching AI, researching AI and building AI (specialising in fundamental algorithm research to create more advanced learning machines), providing us with a deep understanding and knowledge of the AI field that we can impart to our clients, but that also sets us apart from other competitors. We're qualified experts backed up by not only AI qualifications, but also extensive academic and industry experience in the AI field.
AiLab was officially launched in 2017 at one of our sold out events – ‘Future Jobs in a World of Artificial Intelligence’ – which was part of the Open State Festival in Adelaide, South Australia, and was also featured in The Advertiser newspaper. Our goal with AiLab is to help everyone learn about AI – to demystify and provide hype-free information, as well as furthering AI awareness about tools and techniques, rewards and risks. We champion global collaboration to further AI awareness and the promotion of the ethical development of AI solutions.
AiLab provide online and in-person Artificial Intelligence workshops and masterclasses can be customised to your needs. We help organisations develop an understanding of current AI capabilities to successfully identify AI projects and assist with learning, using and transitioning into the AI space, policy and effective strategy development for implementing AI, pre-vendor planning helping prepare key stakeholders for provider engagement, privacy/ethics/bias surrounding AI and more! Understanding the complex world of AI and learning about the opportunities for Artificial Intelligence within an organisation is usually just the start of the journey, so AiLab offer consultancy and advisory services that provides organisations with on-going AI advice that helps guide staff through their AI journey, as well as providing support for future AI needs.
Partnering and collaborating with a range of international experts and organisations, AiLab demystifies the world of AI by providing education, research and insights to highlight how AI is transforming the world in which we live. We also partner with academic institutions to help promote AI awareness, research and collaborations between industry and universities.
In 2020, we expanded AiLab into New Zealand where we launched ‘AiLab at AUT’ within Auckland University of Technology. ‘AiLab at AUT’ helps promote, educate and expand ethical AI adoption. It provides access to AI support and works with the university and industry partners to coordinate and support AI opportunities with partners and the established local AI community – providing another conduit between academic research and commercial entities. AiLab has also led a number of private and public research projects with industry, researchers and students to help further the field.
Through our workshops, advisory and talks, AiLab have worked with numerous government departments at federal, state and local levels, as well as large and small corporations and organisations, including some world-renowned technology companies.
As well as our workshops and masterclasses, we also present and talk about AI and have given hundreds of AI keynotes, seminars, talks and lectures at events and conferences around the globe, presenting on the incredible opportunities AI brings and the future impact of AI on society and the workforce. Proudly community focused with a passion for diversity and inclusion, AiLab also hosts, sponsors and organises events to help support and grow the AI ecosystem – including founding and building Adelaide AI in 2018, which is a huge success and has grown into the largest Artificial Intelligence netowrking community in South Australia. AiLab are also proud to be Community Partner for the Women in AI Australia and New Zealand Awards that celebate and honour Women in AI. We also sponsored and champion the Strong Women in Future Technologies (SWIFT) program.
We also advise and contribute to AI discussions through radio, media, roundtables and publications. The AiLab journey has been fortunate to be featured in the media with articles about our launch, events, expansion and impact. We're fortunate to have interviewed and brought together leading local and international industry speakers to showcase and promote the latest in AI.
