Artificial Intelligence: Power BI, Responsible AI and Practical applications

The event is full! Please contact me directly (Martin.ter.horst@Macaw.nl) to see if we can make an additional spot available to you.

The next wave of tools and technology is evolving, and it’s empowering us to apply artificial intelligence to solve real-life practical problems easier, faster and better. Meetups@Macaw will update you on the Microsoft vision for Ai and show you what you can do with the Ai capabilities of Power BI, Cognitive Services for image recognition and Ai integration with Power Apps; as well as how to add UX to the mix to create Ai solutions that to user needs and ethical concerns.. .

Experts from the field will share with you their vision, knowledge and experience. They’ll send you off with tips, tricks and pointers to get you started or take a next step. And of course it’s a great opportunity to meet, catch-up with and network with likeminded professionals

MICROSOFT AI: EMPOWERING THE JOURNEY TO AI
Tony Krijnen – Technology Strategist at Microsoft and rock band singer

In the past 20 to 30 years, software has changed every industry. Software provides businesses with unique advantages over competitors and has transformed every serious company into a software company. And that too is about to change… Tony Krijnen of Microsoft will guide you through the vision and capabilities of Microsoft Ai, what innovations Ai brings, how Microsoft plans to make Ai available to the masses and what they mean by “Responsible AI”.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN POWER BI
Marc Lelijveld – Data Platform MVP and Data & Analytics Consultant at Macaw

In this session, Marc Lelijveld, Microsoft Data Platform MVP, will tell you all about the AI capabilities which Microsoft offers within Power BI and are available for each and every user within the organization. He'll show you how business users will be able to work with this, without writing a line of code. A session with an overview of AI and live demos on how you can implement AI in your daily business.

IMAGE RECOGNITION APP IN HEALTHCARE - LUMC HACKATON RESULTS
Bouke Jan Otter – Data Scientist and Data & Analytics Consultant at Macaw

A few weeks ago a Macaw team participated in a hackaton at Leids Universitair Medisch Centrum. Using Microsoft Azure Cognitive Services, Data Science and Power Apps we enhanced the imaging model with additional data and created an end-to-end, Ai driven app to identify melanoma. In days, rather than weeks or even months. Bouke Jan will talk about the design and development of the app and model and demo the results.

ANOMALY DETECTION IN LARGE VOLUME TRANSACTIONS
Misha Belitser – Data Scientist at Macaw

By means of a real-life case (reimbursement of claims in health insurance) Misha Belitser will demo the result and take you along in the process on how to construct a fast an actionable dashboard with Power BI and integrated advanced analytics in R to detect anomalies in a big swamp of data in tens of thousands of time-series.

HUMAN CENTRIC DESIGN OF RESPONSIBLE AI
Thomas Voorham – UX lead at Macaw Interactive and always taking the user’s perspective

Developing an ethical AI requires a good understanding of the problems that AI technologies can bring in the long term and applying new design considerations to get a better grip on the potential impact of new designs on society. In this talk, we will examine some of the impact that AI presently has on society and explore its benefits and negative effects in order to identify the ethical challenges in designing intelligent systems.
