SUMMARY:Professor Jason Eshraghian\, UC Santa Cruz\, and IEEE CASS/EMBS Distinguished Lectures
DESCRIPTION:1-3pm\, Tutorial on Circuits and Systems for Artificial Intelligence: Architecture and algorithms focusing on spiking neural nets and transformers\n\n3:30-5pm\, Distinguished Lecture and INC Computational Neuroscience Seminar: “Brain-Inspired Low-Power Language Models”\nThis talk unveils the transformative potential of achieving sub-10-watt language models (LMs) by drawing inspiration from the brain’s energy efficiency. We introduce a groundbreaking approach to language model design\, featuring a matrix-multiplication-free architecture that scales to billions of parameters. To validate this paradigm\, we developed custom hardware solutions (FPGA) as well as leveraged pre-existing neuromorphic hardware (Intel Loihi 2)\, optimized for lightweight operations that outperform traditional GPU capabilities. Our system achieves human-surpassing throughput on billion-parameter models at just 13 watts\, setting a new benchmark for energy-efficient AI. This work not only redefines what’s possible for low-power LLMs but also highlights the critical operations future accelerators must prioritize to enable the next wave of sustainable AI innovation.

SUMMARY:Online: Saturday Study Group
DESCRIPTION:We are continuing our Study group online for the time being.\nWe are now meeting online in the San Diego Python Discord server! Here is the link to join: https://discord.gg/8GpWuVvdbQ\nThere is a “meetup” voice/video channel that we will be using! \nWe may start meeting in person soon! This will be discussed at the meetup. We are considering having some online\, some in-person. Decisions\, decisions! \nEvery Saturday we meet up with the larger Python community (including San Diego PyLadies (https://www.meetup.com/sd-pyladies)\, Open BioInformatics San Diego (https://www.meetup.com/Open-Bioinformatics-SanDiego/) and San Diego Artificial Intelligence (https://www.meetup.com/SanDiegoAI/)) to chat\, learn\, and hang out. \nOur study group is for everyone on their Python journey\, whether you’re just starting out\, an experienced pro\, or anywhere in between. There’s no formal instruction\, just a bunch of folks who like to code. Sometimes we talk about a specific subject\, sometimes answer questions\, whatever! \nPython Community Code of Conduct (http://www.pythonsd.org/coc): Python is much more than a software language. Python is a vibrant community made up of members from around the globe with a diverse set of skills\, personalities\, and experiences. It is through these differences that our community experiences great successes and continued growth. Overall\, we’re good to each other. We contribute to this community not because we have to\, but because we want to.

SUMMARY:Breakfast with some San Diego Digital Designers
DESCRIPTION:Hello\, digital designers!

No agenda\, no presentation. Everyone pays for their own meal\, grabs a seat at the table\, and brings their friendly faces. Let’s chat about trends\, workplace issues\, design tools and approaches\, job opportunities\, and digital culture. \nHit up the chat here in Meetup — or in #events in Slack — with any questions at all. \nSee you there!
