It makes it easier for enterprises to leverage their data to provide the user-centric experience they are looking for, while automating their data management process, bringing the best of the cloud into their data center."
While speaking about 'Developing a strong framework for building Ethical AI', Lofred Madzou, Project Lead for AI, at World Economic Forum, mentioned that, "A Robust framework for a new generation of AI technology will need to support three core values: fairness, transparency and accountability. Companies and governments should work together to establish and implement a set of standards and guidelines for human-centered AI and to build a common framework for the ethical development and implementation of AI solutions."
Mark Parkinson, Next Generation Technologies at Mars shed light on the topic 'Leveraging AI at scale to grade cancer in animals - how ML can build a better world for pets'.
