AI and Machine Learning inspire session
This one-day ABIS training introduces IT professionals, developers, data specialists, engineers, and technology managers to the essentials of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. You will learn what AI, ML and Generative AI are, why they are rapidly evolving now, and how they are applied in practice. By the end of the day, you will have a solid understanding of the key concepts, technologies, and use cases that are shaping AI, and how they connect to your role in IT and data!
This training:
- Helps you understand AI terminology - from neural networks and Transformers to foundation models, LLMs, computer vision, and multimodal AI ...
- Explain the importance of data quality and lifecycle management.
- Explores today’s practical AI: using chatbots, prompt engineering, personalization, Retrieval-Augmented Generation, and agentic workflows.
