Abstract: 

David "Gonzo" Gonzalez will code up an AI-powered API beginning with real-world datasets and walk through all the steps and thought processes that govern a successful implementation of AI from a Software Developer's perspective. We will NOT be using Jupyter notebooks. We will be taking questions in real-time and checking code into a community repo for all to reference after the session.

Bio: 

David “Gonzo” Gonzalez is a “reformed” Data Science professional with well over a decade of experience putting AI and ML into production in mission-critical systems. At DataRobot he is working to empower traditional software development teams comprised of product visionaries and engineers with tools and solutions that will allow them to more easily incorporate AI into what they build. Prior to DataRobot he worked on multiple auto-ml platforms and pioneered transactionally authored training and inference multi-modal datasets at Zeff.ai where he was CEO and co-founder. Gonzo is the primary author of The Manifesto for Applied Artificial Intelligence Development and has multiple ML patents. In his free time, he enjoys playing outdoors in his adoptive home of Utah with his wife and children.
