On September 4, MassTLC kicked off the fall events calendar with the second edition of our popular Applied Machine Learning Developer Day (AMLDD), hosted by Google Cambridge and featuring speakers from Amazon, NASDAQ, Neurala, Spotify, and SilverThread.
Over 150 people from across the industry gathered for an exciting day of talks, case studies, networking, and thinking about the future of applied machine learning – not only the “hows,” but also the “whys,” the “ifs,” and the results. From AI to Alexa and beyond, we covered it all.
Some highlights:
