SUMMARY:2025 Austin Tech Hall of Fame / First Time Founder Awards
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT – Join us for the 2nd year of the Austin Tech Hall of Fame\n  \nFREE PARKING at INDEED TOWER DOWNTOWN –  But you must use correct entrance to building garages or you will have to pay….. \nParking Garage Instructions: \n\nThe entrance for all Indeed parking is on7th Street between Lavaca and Colorado. You will go UP a ramp to enter this garage. This garage is labeled “Contract Parking“- you are welcome to park here. If you park in the other garage around the building\, you will be responsible for the cost of guest parking.\nPress the call button at the gate to notify security you are an Indeed visitor. They will open the gate for you. Security will verify you at the front desk in the lobby.\n\n \n  \n  \n \nSOLD OUT\nThe Austin Technology Council is proud to once again be hosting the Austin Tech Hall of Fame.  This is the second year of our “Eight Year Launch” of this ongoing program. The purpose of the Hall of Fame is to celebrate the past\, present\, and future of Austin’s tech ecosystem and the individuals who contribute and are contributing to the growth and success of our region’s tech economy. \nThe event will take place on Wednesday\, May 7th from 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM at Indeed Tower. \nWe will honor eight legacy / foundational inductees\, a 2025 inductee\, and a first time founder. \nThis event sold out last year in eight days…..so be sure to get your tickets ASAP. \nNominations for the 2025 Austin Tech Hall of Fame were open in March\, and the committee (made up of past inductees\, local community leaders\, and a few ATC Board Members) selected those being honored.  While there are dozens of people who helped create our tech ecosystem\, we cannot honor everyone at once – thus we have decided to add eight foundational inductees each year.  Nominations were open to everyone and neither the nominator nor the nominee need to have any affiliation with the Austin Technology Council. (Please note\, if someone you thing should have been honored is not on the list …YET… be sure to nominate them next year. If someone is not nominated by the “community”\, they cannot be considered by the committee.  ATC wants to make sure that the Austin Tech Hall of Fame is a grassroots program). \nThe cocktail reception on May 7th is a celebration of all things Austin\, and we invite everyone who is part of the tech ecosystem to attend. All are welcome\, it is not a curated guest list\, as one of the things that makes Austin special is accessibility to all. \nTickets will go on sale on April 3rd (or there abouts).  Check back on here or the ATC newsletter or LinkedIn page to be sure you do not miss the chance to be present at this event. \nREGISTER NOW – No Refunds for cancelation.  This event will sell out quickly. \nEvent Sponsors:\nKPMG\, Egan Nelson\, Indeed\, Reddit (more sponsor opportunities still available)\n

SUMMARY:The Importance of UX in the Age of AI
DESCRIPTION:Our daily lives now involve almost continuous interactions with technologies via their interfaces. Artificial intelligence is changing the way we interact with some technologies: AI lets us talk to our devices naturally\, using everyday language and gestures. However\, not all interfaces are AI\, and just having AI embedded does not ensure productivity\, simplicity\, and enjoyment for all use cases. Thus\, user experience (UX) design is important to ensure our increasingly technology-enabled lives are productive\, efficient\, and enjoyable. In this presentation\, experienced UX designer Erik Summa will share how UX continues to play an important role in making technologies useful and enjoyable\, and especially how AI is changing UX and the way we design technologies for the maximum benefit of humans. \nErik Summa is an AI Experience Leader at Dell Technologies who specializes in designing intuitive human-AI interactions through natural interfaces. With 15+ years in the creative industry and over five years mentoring future designers\, he transforms complex AI capabilities into seamless\, human-centered experiences. \nSumma is an AI Experience Leader at Dell Technologies who specializes in designing intuitive human-AI interactions through natural interfaces.

SUMMARY:Discussion of "Who Owns the Future?"
DESCRIPTION:For our August monthly online discussion\, friend of the Austin Forum and Professor Emeritus at The University of Texas at Austin\, J. Craig Wheeler\, will lead us in a conversation about the power of our personal data within this new age of the information economy. \nThrough his book\, Who Owns the Future?\, Jaron Lanier\, Silicon Valley veteran and the father of virtual reality\, presses readers to question the intangible data contract inflicted upon them by the world’s elite. At the cost of clicking around on the internet all day for free\, hedge funds\, industry powerhouses such as Google and Amazon\, and the top 1% exploit our data. Lanier argues that this trade quite literally disintegrates the middle class and threatens our economy to the degree that it reaches your mortgage\, insurance\, and healthcare. Join us as we dive into the concepts of this book on a broader scale and consider potential solutions (our own and Lanier’s) that will give ownership and power back to data owners while strengthening the economy at all levels. This book has renewed relevance in the age of Large Language Models like ChatGPT that scrape copyrighted material from the Web with no recompense. Paying creators could be a version of Lanier’s micropayment scheme. \nWe encourage attendees to read the book Who Owns the Future?\, as it will foster richer\, more in-depth conversations. Reading the book is not a requirement to participate in the event. We look forward to seeing you there!

SUMMARY:Global Energy Trends and Transitions
DESCRIPTION:The worldwide energy sector is going through dramatic shifts in energy demand\, end-uses\, and sources. Population growth and economic growth are driving up total demand. Industrialization\, urbanization\, electrification and motorization are changing how we use energy. And a policy push for domestic\, low-carbon and renewable fuels is changing our sources of energy. At the same time\, we are entering an era where markets\, technologies and policies are enabling dramatic increases in U.S. production of oil\, gas\, wind\, solar and bioenergy that is affecting global economies\, the environment\, and our national security posture. In parallel\, our energy and information sectors are merging to form smarter energy systems and more energy-intensive information systems. For this talk\, Dr. Webber will give an entertaining and big-picture overview of global energy trends mixed in with humorous anecdotes\, historical snippets\, and unexpected examples that will give a surprising look into the future of energy.
