Through the evolution of Bill’s career, he’s always found himself working in industries in their very earliest stages. He’s seen technology change and grow at an exponential pace in the last 20 years and watched how it has produced valuable data. Bill outlines how artificial intelligence and machine algorithms process information, how customer relationship management software stores and interprets data, and how that data can be modeled and analyzed to understand human behavior.

Developing effective and innovative AI requires an understanding of the capacities and limitations of current machine learning models. Scholarly research on “flow” suggests that balancing skill and challenge is necessary to reach flow state and impact cognitive growth. This talk will examine the processes underlying predictive modeling, machine learning, artificial intelligence, as well as their implications for a variety of industries.
