This fun, once-in-a-lifetime gathering was a celebration of colleagues and collaborations on Eric Horvitz’ milestone birthday. The event included short talks from Eric’s beloved colleagues and collaborators from over the decades with the goal of celebrating their ideas, collaborations, and contributions that were influenced by, or that resonated with Eric’s pursuit of principles and applications of machine intelligence. The event was organized around the theme of mentorship and collaboration with a goal of bringing together the many interns, postdocs, and PhD advisees who Eric has worked with, mentored, and learned from over the last twenty-five years.

Co-organizers: Ece Kamar and Jure Leskovec
