A large crowd of AAAI-15 goers, one of the main conferences in Artificial Intelligence, gathered at the AAAI Video Competition Award Ceremony today in Austin, Texas. The competition aims to spread the word about research and applications in AI through exciting educational videos. For this ninth edition, co-chaired by Mauro Birattari and me, 18 videos were submitted, 11 were accepted, and 3 received awards based on peer review and your votes. All the winners were there to receive their oscar-style Shakey Awards.
