  • Artificial Intelligence for everyone, even you

    • 4:00 PM Saturday
    • Room Town Square C
    We've made it. Science fiction is now science fact. Hardware, software, and data science have advanced to where we can finally look at artificial intelligence as a commodity, not the work of specialists in the field. Azure unlocks for the path for advanced users, while normalized wrappers like Cognitive Services have given developers & armchair scientists access to easy-to-use, easy-to-deploy, affordable solutions for everyday apps. In this session, let's look at the approach of this new age and how to make the most with the skills you already have.
