Panel Discussion: AI and Open Source - academia vs industry

Is there a better way to conclude a conference than by closing the gap between academia and industry? While universities and companies often pursue different goals, methods, and face distinct constraints in their use of AI, machine learning, and open-source technologies, true progress lies in meaningful partnership.
