Amii CEO Cam Linke will be presenting at the sixth annual AI Summit Silicon Valley 2021 in San Francisco, which runs November 3-4, 2021.
Part of the POC (proof of concept) to Production stage, his presentation, Rethinking Personalization through Reinforcement Learning, explores the future of how businesses can personalize their operations – from customer experiences to internal systems. As the next wave in AI, reinforcement learning provides opportunities for us to think about tailoring experiences in new ways -- such as personalizing systems toward unique business needs and personalizing plant operations based on environmental conditions. He’ll discuss how reinforcement learning is opening new pathways to personalization across a range of industries.
“Businesses around the world are waking up to the potential of reinforcement learning,” says Linke. “As processes and systems grow in complexity, reinforcement learning is increasingly becoming an essential tool for companies seeking to grow their competitive advantage. Within the next five years, if you’re not looking seriously at reinforcement learning, you risk your business being left behind.”
Sponsors of the AI Summit include Accenture, IBM Watson and Invest in Canada. The two-day event, in partnership with IOT World, mixes the practical with the aspirational by bringing together AI experts from around the world and businesses to build connections and exhibit cutting-edge technology.
The event will also include speakers from Microsoft AI and Innovation, Forward, WarnerMedia and DeepBrainAI.
Catch Cam’s presentation on the POC to Production stage on November 4 at 10am MT.
