Of course\, having a collection that large doesn’t hel p anyone if it’s difficult to access.

In this session we will: * Give you a tour of Internet Archi ve and its collections* Introduce you to the APIs and tools you can use to access and contribute to the Archive* Show examples of how other peop le and institutions are using the Archive Speaker Bio: In VM (aka Vicky) 's nearly 20 years in the tech industry she has been an analyst\, progra mmer\, product manager\, software engineering manager\, director of soft ware engineering\, and C-level technical business and open source strate gy consultant.

However\, creating these systems requires us to reverse engineer some of the most fundamen tal aspects of life\, which can be difficult and overwhelming — especial ly if you don’t know where to start.   Designing Intelligence will: • He lp the you understand what’s happening in the artificial intelligence sp ace and where it’s been. • Explain why you’ll be making one of these sys tems sooner than you think. • Teach you how to create the products that will thrive in the age of automation. • Give you language to help you se ll your ideas to your team and bring your dreams to life. This is one ta lk you’ll regret missing. Guest Speaker Joe Toscano will be presenting -  @realjoet. Formerly an Experience Designer for R/GA\, Joe worked as a c onsultant for Google\, where he and his team oversaw the Google product ecosystem and helped Google take products to market. This meant he and h is team had to understand how each product strategically fit within the Google ecosystem now\, how each product would evolve\, over time\, and h ow the decisions being made by individual teams would affect Google’s la rger business goals\, as a whole. Understanding this allowed him and his team to be confident that the decisions they were making would strategi cally move Google’s business forward. Joe has since left his job at R/GA to pursue writing his book\, Designing Intelligence. The book is being written to help people understand the current state of automation\, wher e it's been and where it's going\, how to design products that will thri ve in the age of automation\, and what role we\, as technical talent\, p lay in creating an inclusive future through automation. He hopes to help create ethical automation designers who not only understand best practi ces of making these systems but also understand the impact they'll be ma king on the world\, through automation.

These events offer network ing opportunities\, access to Subject Matter Experts\, and impetus to pu rsue novel solutions to work conundrums. The annual Write the Docs confe rences offer glimpses of what is possible in my work environment. After Write the Docs NA 2017 event\, I initiated several new projects/processe s to elevate the state of internal communication\, raise awareness for c ustomer-facing documents\, and organize tech communication community at work. The initial results have been encouraging. We’ll explore how ideas from past and present Write the Docs events have acted as catalysts to overcome challenges and obstacles. We’ll also discuss why the conference is relevant for tech writers\, regardless of their industry affiliation s. \n\n\nBio Mo Nishiyama is a Technical Writer at Oregon Health &\; Science University’s Information Technology Group.
