Pioneering Industrial Optimisation with AI Featuring Nikolaj van Omme 2024-02-13 · 18:20
Nikolaj van Omme – CEO and co-founder @ Funartech , Jonas Christensen – host

My guest on this episode is Nikolaj van Omme, CEO and co-founder of Funartech. Funartech is a Canadian company specializing in AI-driven solutions to complex industrial optimisation problems. The company’s secret sauce is combining the two disciplines of Operations Research and Machine Learning. Operations Research is about making the best decisions and solving problems in a structured way, using maths to optimize outcomes. Machine learning on the other hand, is really good at spotting patterns and making predictions from lots and lots of data. The cool part happens when we bring these two together. ML is the detective finding clues in a sea of information, and OR is the strategist, using those clues to make the best moves. By working together, they can tackle challenges neither could face on their own. Find Nikolaj on LinkedIn or via Funartech's website.

Using Data to Build a Better World with Dr Alex Antic 2022-03-09 · 18:31
Dr Alex Antic – Managing Director @ Dr Alex Antic Group , Jonas Christensen – host

Is AI good or bad? That would depend on how AI is applied. AI is a revolutionary capability with the power to do a lot of good and plenty of bad, on purpose or by omission. In order for AI to become a social good that improves our lives in broad terms, we must necessarily pick the right use cases and design solutions with a strong focus on ethics and privacy. So, how is AI being used for social good today, and how do we ensure the important topics of ethics and privacy are front and centre for those designing AI solutions? To answer these questions and many more relating to using data for good, I recently spoke to Dr Alex Antic. Alex is the Managing Director of the Dr Alex Antic Group and an award-winning data & analytics leader with a truly impressive CV spanning across quantitative finance, insurance, academia, several federal government departments and consulting as well as advisory and board roles. In this episode of Leaders of Analytics, we cover: The role data, data science and AI can and should play in societyExamples of how AI is being used for social goodHow public entities ensure people’s privacy is maintained, including the use of Privacy Enhancing TechnologiesThe most important data science and AI skills for us to foster as a societyHow Alex is teaching future data leaders to make ethical design choices, and much more.Dr Alex Antic website: https://dralexantic.com/ Dr Alex Antic LinkedIn profile:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/dralexantic/
