Explore new AI frontiers with machine learning technologies (45 minutes session) | Birds of a feather
The last few years have seen explosive growth and interest in artificial intelligence00a0(AI) and00a0machine intelligence. The big companies are adopting them with incredible speed, but what does that00a0mean for everyone else? Deep learning and other techniques are also coming into focus. Are we on the cusp of a new revolution? Is this the true democratization of AI?Join us for an open discussion on what is happening with AI and machine learning in the enterprise. We will discuss how to scale, mitigate security risks, provide transparency, and keep these technologies running when entire businesses are on the line.
