Description: 

Companies heavily invest into and build up projects around data and artificial intelligence/ machine learning/ deep learning. In this interactive session, CERN Knowledge Transfer (KT) would like to provide first-hand insights from industry and discuss examples of the kind of activities companies pursue to create value from AI. 

We will address questions such as:  

• What are the main differences between AI in science and AI in business?

• What do companies promise themselves by investing into data, analytics & AI?

• How do companies approach AI? What are example AI use cases and projects they tackle?

 

The event will be structured in 45’ presentation followed by 15’ Q&A. Interactive discussion during the presentation is strongly encouraged.

Leveraging his experience from industry, he is now working with CERN Knowledge Transfer to extend the value proposition for AI and help CERN engage in interesting partnerships with companies and institutes.
