===========================================

We have a wonderful opportunity to hear from the impressive Jon McLoone (https://jon.mcloone.info/about.html) on the topic of "Big Problems with Big Data: Managing Risks in AI".

The event will be held ONLINE during LUNCH TIME on THURSDAY, 18 JUNE.

SYNOPSIS: Tools like the Wolfram Language have made machine learning accessible to anyone with basic computing skills. As the importance of knowing the internal details of machine learning algorithms diminishes, the importance of understanding how to apply machine learning appropriately rises. This talk explores the issues you need to consider in making data-driven decisions. It discusses topics such as when machine learning is appropriate, sources of bias, validation and explainability of models and decision-making criteria.

Jon is central to driving Wolfram's technical business strategy and leading the consulting solutions team. Jon has over 25 years of experience working with Wolfram Technologies and gives regular keynote appearances and media interviews on topics such as the Future of AI, Enterprise Computation Strategies and Education Reform, across multiple fields including healthcare, fintech and data science.
