In this talk I'd like to talk about Machine Learning and AI from the point of view of a software engineer involved in more mobile and middleware projects than big-data ones. We'll look at core ML/AI concepts, available tools and the kinds of projects that AI can be used effectively in. Hopefully this session will set us up for deeper dives into the ML/AI space in future sessions
