Datatopics is a podcast presented by Kevin Missoorten to talk about the fuzzy and misunderstood concepts in the world of data, analytics, and AI and get to the bottom of things. In this episode, together with expert guests Jeroen, Guillaume and our own Murilo, we dive deep into the fascinating world of Edge AI. Where “traditional” AI models can be accessed remotely they often run centrally on a cloud instance, but what do you do when you need an immediate response, or when you don’t want the data to be sent or don’t always have connection? In that case you can use ‘smaller’ models deployed on a device, this is called Edge AI. Edge AI can bring many benefits but there are still some challenges as well.Tune in to DataTopics to hear our take on Edge AI, what business value it can bring, where it is today and where we see it evolve to next!Datatopics is brought to you by DatarootsMusic: The Gentlemen - DivKidThe thumbnail is generated by Midjourney

Datatopics is a podcast presented by Kevin Missoorten to talk about the fuzzy and misunderstood concepts in the world of data, analytics, and AI and get to the bottom of things.In this episode, together with guests Berg and Tim, we dive deep into the fascinating world of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).The AI applications we see today are often referred to as “narrow AI” (ANI), basically excellent at performing one task and one task only. AGI or Strong AI, refers to the hypothetical intelligence of a machine that exhibits the ability to understand, learn, and apply knowledge in a way comparable to a human being. But how do we define “comparable to a human being”? Which human being? Are there other definitions? How do topics like alignment and singularity come into the picture? How can we contribute to making sure when we reach this state, we are able to harness this capability? Do we need a moratorium? Tune in to DataTopics to hear our discussion on these topics and more!Datatopics is brought to you by DatarootsMusic: The Gentlemen - DivKidThe thumbnail is generated by Midjourney

Datatopics is a podcast presented by Kevin Missoorten to talk about the fuzzy and misunderstood concepts in the world of data, analytics, and AI and get to the bottom of things.In another thought-provoking episode of the Datatopics podcast we embark on a captivating exploration of data monetization. Join us as we gather two distinguished guests, Bart Hamers, head of the center of expertise of analytics and AI at a large bank, and Ben Mellaerts, a dataroots data strategist with Dataroots, to untangle the complex web of generating value from data.Throughout the episode, together we engage in a though debate, attempting to pinpoint the true essence of data monetization. Addressing common misconceptions, explore the challenges and opportunities associated with data monetization, today and in an ever increasing digital world.Is data monetization limited to opportunities to sell data or data products or is it more? If so, does this word bring any added value to our lives? (pun intended) How does data privacy fit in? Tune in for our perspective to these and many more questions!Datatopics is brought to you by DatarootsMusic: The Gentlemen - DivKidThe thumbnail is generated by Midjourney

Datatopics is a podcast presented by Kevin Missoorten to talk about the fuzzy and misunderstood concepts in the world of data, analytics, and AI and get to the bottom of things.In this episode, we'll be discussing a fascinating and rapidly growing technology called digital twins, which is changing the way we design, manufacture, and operate everything from tomato plants to complex machinery and even the world.Joining us as expert guests on this topic are Paulan Korenhof, Bart Meyers and Tim Leers. Together we explore the basics of digital twins: what are they and as of when do we speak of a digital twin and not just a digital model or digital shadow, when are they useful and when are they not or how mature is this field today?We also don't shy away from more philosophical topics like the assemblage of the digital twin - where does it start and where does it end -, where is this field going, or the importance of the awareness of digital twin limitations by decision makers.Datatopics is brought to you by DatarootsMusic: The Gentlemen - DivKidThe thumbnail is generated by Midjourney

Datatopics is a podcast presented by Kevin Missoorten to talk about the fuzzy and misunderstood concepts in the world of data, analytics, and AI and get to the bottom of things.In today's episode - a second one on collaborative data ecosystems - , we're diving into the world of collaborative Intelligence covering topics like federated learning, swarm learning, Edge AI and more groundbreaking approaches that are transforming the landscape of machine learning. Join our expert guests Thomas Huybrechts and Virginie Marelli as we explore the inner workings of this innovative approach. We'll delve into the core concepts of federated learning, including how it enables organizations to leverage the collective knowledge of distributed data while maintaining data privacy and security. We'll also discuss the practical applications of federated learning in various domains, such as healthcare, finance, and IoT, and how it is being used to address real-world challenges.
