With over one thousand students on our Dublin campus, the UCD School of Computer Science is the largest computer science department in Ireland. We offer a 4-year BSc Honours degree in Computer Science, Masters degrees for both computer science graduates and conversion students, and 4-year Structured PhD programmes. Our courses cover the principles and practise of computer science encompassing programming, algorithm development, and data science. All of our teaching is informed by state-of-the-art research conducted within the School. In short, our programmes are Software-Focused and Research-Led. The School has topped the rankings for computer science research in Ireland for many years. We have over 130 postgraduate students working on the latest topics in computer science. Graduates from the School are in high-demand from industry. These industry opportunities are supported by popular internships programmes embedded within our B.Sc. and M.Sc. curricula.
Professor Geoffrey Hinton is presented with the UCD Ulysses Medal
Professor Geoffrey Hinton was presented with the UCD Ulysses Medal by UCD President Professor Orla Feely during a ceremony at UCD O’Reilly Hall on Monday 8 April 2024 at 6.30pm.
The UCD Ulysses medal is the highest honour that the College can bestow. It is awarded to individuals who have made an outstanding global contribution.
Professor Hinton is one of the most influential AI researchers of the past 50 years, a pioneer who spent his career trying to build AI systems that model the human brain.
In this video of the event, UCD School of Computer Science’s Dr Andrew Hines introduces the presentation of the UCD Ulysses medal to Professor Geoffrey Hinton and reads his citation.
Prof Hinton responds to his award and gives a talk about Artificial Intelligence, touching on neural networks, backpropagation, language and meaning, learning and language models and how LLMs work.
UCD President Orla Feely speaks about the challenges of research and Geoffrey Hinton’s career and impact. She speaks about the potential applications, opportunities, limitations and challenges of AI.
Professor Kate Robson Brown, UCD’s Vice-President for Research, Innovation and Impact, joins Geoffrey Hinton and Andrew Hines on stage for a discussion about his career and his thoughts on a range of subjects. The discussion covers advice to early career researchers, what we can all do together to make AI safe in the interests of humanity and society, the risks of bias and disinformation and how soon AI will be smarter than us. They discuss AI regulation and policy and applications of AI in the health sector, such as medical imaging. The audience has a chance to ask questions and hear Geoffrey Hinton’s views and insights on topics such as work-life balance, energy use, neuroscience and the brain and the role of government in making AI safe.

Protect him.
Thank you very much for uploading this video.
I am coming
It is the first time I see Hinton sitting!
I’ve seen him a few times on TH-cam. He’s very likeable. Great to see him receive this award.
Corporations cannot be trusted to have complete control of this most critical and powerful technology. if anything, closed source AI must be banned.
Neither can governments
I'm much more scared about immense power in the hands of a few corrupt elites than in the hands of everyone.
Totalitarian dystopia it is then. Thanks Prof. Hinton, you are such a humanitarian.
Good atmosphere and very cool the Irish language. Imo a very clear, concise and for laypeople relatively easy to understand explanation by Prof. Hinton of how artificial neural networks really do understand, via interactions between learned features. -- and his very important message for humanity, to really tread very carefully with this technology. The Q&A also was very informative.
Wow the sound is appalling
Hinton was always in his work and presentation at conferences etc more interesting, thoughtful and even entertaining than the average. But post-retirement the speeches and talks he has given are just excellent. Enjoying this Hinton incarnation. Only thing I disagree on is the open sourcing of models (LeCun is right, Hinton is wrong - open sourcing is the only chance we got to retain any control, his old-socialist impulse is taking him astray there)
He seems to forget how cynical large companies can be, especially today since they are no longer family businesses, leaving no one accountable when things go wrong. Everyone involved simply seeks greater profit, with morality absent from the equation. As a reminder, during World War II, many major companies like IBM, Siemens, and Ford collaborated with the Nazis.
Socializing AI would be open sourcing you've got that backeards
First thing Prof. Hinton said, was about his gratitude and acknowledgement of his graduate students! What a character!
Most of his students are now rulez AI
Great interview - past, present and future!
You've done an amazing job with this video. How does Fergal Reid foresee AI impacting the workplace, based on the conversation highlighted in the video? As a dream interpretation channel owner, I'm constantly seeking ways to enhance viewer engagement and foster meaningful discussions. I truly appreciate the insights shared in this video about the future of AI in the workplace, and I've already liked and subscribed to your channel for more thought-provoking content.
