How do you know when it’s time to shift in your career?
How do you get started?
Who should you bring into your inner circle?

She had only just come back to work that fall after the birth of her first child. when she learned (on her 29th birthday!), that her job was being eliminated. Holy SHIFT! But it didn’t take her long to find a great fit managing a new online service at a different company nearby. People thought “Wow!

Session Summary:
Getting started with AI and machine learning can be daunting. Use my research – we’ll discuss several different tools that I find valuable and the different reasons. We’ll take a quick walk-through each one so you get a better understanding. Covering pros and cons, providing suggestions on what they’re good for in terms of possible goals, aligning with technical stacks, costs, and what their roadmaps look like.
Some of the tools we’ll cover include:
Google’s Cloud Machine Learning Engine
AWS SageMaker
Azure Machine Learning Studio
TensorFlow
PyTorch
Keras
You’ll walk away with understanding the major players in the AI and machine learning tools space. Your barrier to entry on doing some AI work or play will be lowered by knowing these tools. At the very least, you’ll be able to speak more of the AI jargon around the water cooler! However, these tools may give you a leg up when your company decides to go further with AI and you could help lead that effort!

Session Summary:
When most people think about network security, they think firewalls, not printers. But, in fact, your printers may be exposing your organization to a host of risks. Like any other end point in your network, printers have memory, processors and operating systems. Without the proper safeguards, you’re vulnerable and don’t even know it!
Jay’s presentation will discuss this area of security few organizations address. He’ll explain the risks, why most organizations bypass the time-consuming task of safeguarding their printers, and ways in which you can assess your risks and provide security monitoring and compliance across your entire fleet with solutions that are automated, efficient and game-changing.
