The positive societal impacts of these models as advertised by tech leaders is debated by ethicists, researchers, and community advocates. The true impacts remain to be seen but there is consensus that tools such as GPT 3\/4 and Lensa, and associated models like LLMs and stable diffusion will change the way sectors, systems, and society operate.

These smart environments allow people to perform tasks efficiently by offering unprecedented levels of access to information and assistance. In the near future, older adults and people with disabilities will avail of smart assistive technology to assist in carrying out daily activities, socializing, enjoying entertainment and leisure activities all while maintaining good health and well-being. Combined with artificial intelligence and IoT\/ubiquitous technologies in smart environments, health telematics can radically transform the way health-related services (diagnosis, therapy and assistance) are conceived and delivered. For a more optimal medical intervention, the results of medical laboratory tests can be enriched by objective user behavior data, captured by IoT\/Smart environment facilities.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">In this talk, Dr. Abdulrazak will give an introduction to various interdisciplinary research and development activities in this field at the Ambient Intelligence Laboratory (AMI-Lab), University of Sherbrooke Quebec, Canada. The applications range from Assistive Home Environment for older adults and smart retirement facilities, to self-reported data for monitoring medical interventions. Numerous of these technologies aim at being used either inside or outside (home, retirement communities, community clinics, on the street, etc.)<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"b2\">Session G1<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Speaker<\/strong>: Sourour Ben Cheikh &amp; Bernard Duval<\/p>\n<p><strong>Title<\/strong>: Mitacs Research Opportunities at the College Level<\/p>\n<p><strong>Abstract<\/strong>: <span lang=\"EN-CA\">Mitacs is a not-for-profit organization that fosters Canadian innovation by solving business challenges with solutions from postsecondary institutions including CEGEPs and colleges.

C\u2019est l\u2019un des premiers pays \u00e0 utiliser les AIA dans le gouvernement, et pour ce faire, il a d\u00e9velopp\u00e9 un AIA en source ouverte. Dans cet atelier, nous nous appuierons sur la promesse d\u2019un AIA en source ouverte, en travaillant avec le logiciel comme une plateforme plut\u00f4t qu&#8217;un simple instrument de politique.<\/p>\n<p>En utilisant un format de hackathon, les participants travailleront en petits groupes pour prototyper de nouvelles utilisations et visions alternatives pour l&#8217;AIA du Canada. Nous r\u00e9fl\u00e9chirons \u00e0 la fa\u00e7on dont cet outil pourrait \u00eatre r\u00e9utilis\u00e9 et recod\u00e9, avec un accent particulier sur son adaptation pour un contexte \u00e9ducatif.<\/p>\n<p>Aucune connaissance technique ou en mati\u00e8re de politique n&#8217;est requise pour participer !

Les v\u00e9ritables impacts restent \u00e0 voir, mais il existe un consensus sur le fait que des outils comme GPT-3\/4 et Lensa, ainsi que des mod\u00e8les associ\u00e9s comme les grands mod\u00e8les de langage (LLM) et la diffusion stable, changeront la mani\u00e8re dont les secteurs, les syst\u00e8mes et la soci\u00e9t\u00e9 fonctionnent.
