For those that didn’t hear that show or might be new to TWIML & AI, tell us about your background and some of your AI/ML focus now.Topic 2 - Let’s start with the things that are considered “mainstream” with AI & ML today. Fraud detection, recommendation engines, facial recognition, speech recognition, auto-completions. What’s missing from that list, and how “commodity” have those technologies, tools, datasets, cloud services become?Topic 3 -On the flipside, what are some of the areas where research or just the massive cloud providers are focused today?Topic 4 - A couple years ago it seemed like TWIML & AI was a mix of technology discussions and business/social impacts. This past year seemed to be a deeper focus on the underlying technologies. What’s the current state of the balance between AI & ML for computing improvement vs. concerns about personal privacy, etc.?Topic 5 - What’s the “getting started” curve look like for companies that want/need to add or integrate AI & ML into their applications? What are some numbers you hear about cost of engineers, sizes of datasets, number of experiments and models needed to run, etc.?Topic 6 - What are some of the things you’re really looking forward to in 2019, whether it’s technology or trends or something else?Feedback?Email: show at thecloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet and @ServerlessCastFEEDBACK?Email: show @ the enterprise ai show dot comeBluesky: @EntAIShow.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @TheEntAIShowInstagram: @TheEntAIShow
