Challenging the notion that AI must be massive, this webinar introduces the Expressive Neural Network (ENN). Unlike resource-intensive Large Language Models (LLMs), ENNs rethink activation functions using the Discrete Cosine Transform. This innovative architecture enhances flexibility, speeds convergence, and creates significantly smaller models, reducing energy and computational costs.

ENNs bridge traditional signal processing with modern AI, revolutionizing edge computing by enabling efficient AI in resource-constrained environments. This approach emphasizes expressiveness over size, positioning ENNs as a precision tool for future neural networks.

Populism suggests citizens can enjoy globalization's benefits without globalism's trade-offs, challenging the current international system. This raises a key question: can populism sustain any version of globalization?

Join authors Ian Bremmer (Us Versus Them: The Failure of Globalism) and Tom Nichols (The Death of Expertise) to debate these issues. Nikolas Gvosdev, Carnegie Council senior fellow and professor at the U.S. Naval War College, will lead the discussion.

The U.S. Supreme Court has become a powerful, unelected policymaker, profoundly shaping American life through decisions on voting rights, healthcare, and more. A conservative majority ensures its continued influence.

Ian Millhiser, Vox's Supreme Court correspondent and author of *The Agenda*, will discuss the Court's future. He explores how it could reshape America, undermining democracy by impacting voting rights, the administrative state, church/state separation, and issues like abortion and affirmative action.

Join Millhiser and Melissa Murray for this crucial conversation, Wednesday, April 7, at 12:00 PM PDT. Details: commonwealthclub.org/covid19support. Follow Ian Millhiser on Twitter @imillhiser.
