Blockchain and AI - The Smart Revolution

The BlockchainHub is inviting you to attend this groundbreaking session to discuss the convergence of Blockchain and AI and the way it's enabling new enterprise applications, hear from industry experts and learn about our new Certified AI Professional program.

AI is opening up new opportunities to harness data and generate insights that can help our devices become smarter and make decisions just like humans.
