Gradient Dissent: Conversations on AI
How AI is powering the next generation of security systems with Deep Sentinel's Dave Selinger
Learn why traditional home security systems tend to fail and how Dave’s love of tinkering and deep learning are helping him and the team at Deep Sentinel avoid those same pitfalls. He also discusses the importance of combatting racial bias by designing race-agnostic systems and what their approach is to solving that problem.
Dave Selinger is the co-founder and CEO of Deep Sentinel, an intelligent crime prediction and prevention system that stops crime before it happens using deep learning vision techniques. Prior to founding Deep Sentinel, Dave co-founded RichRelevance, an AI recommendation company.
