Speaker 1: Iain Miller - Senior Technical Account Manager, Amazon Web Services (AWS)

"AWS DeepRacer: Get hands-on with AI"

In pole position to learn reinforcement learning. AWS DeepRacer gives you an interesting and fun way to get started with Reinforcement Learning (RL). RL is an advanced Machine Learning (ML) technique that takes a very different approach to training models than other machine learning methods. Its super power is that it learns very complex behaviours without requiring any labelled training data, and can make short term decisions while optimizing for a longer term goal.

Speaker 2: Nick Hammond - Staff Software Engineer, N-Able

"DevOps - Friday night's alright for deploying!"

Nick will share the skills and techniques needed to gain confidence in deploying code into a production environment.
