Watch this episode on-demand (originally livestreamed Thursday 1st October on Microsoft Learn TV):
We're only just starting to understand the true potential of technology at the intersection of Artificial Intelligence, MLOps (Machine Learning & DevOps), Cloud Computing and Edge Computing - but the possibilities are endless.
For the past few years, our AI Engineers, Data Scientists and Cloud Advocates at Microsoft have been working with the University of Oxford to further the development of these technologies and further the practical application of these in the world.
The collaboration has resulted in the University of Oxford offering specific courses on AI and Cloud/Edge computing - and on the development of the AI Edge Engineer Learning Path on Microsoft Learn.
On the 1st October we brought together the team at Microsoft and the academics at University of Oxford that worked to build this learning path - watch the show to find out more about this free Learning Path, as well as some of the amazing applications of these technologies.
On this show we met:
Amy Boyd - host of this episode and Cloud Advocate for AI + Machine Learning at Microsoft. Amy has been working with the University of Oxford for a number of years and helped build the AI Edge Engineer Learning Path, as well as being a guest lecturer on the course at Oxford. She is also responsible for the Development of the Developer's Guide to AI series of content, seen at Microsoft events around the world and also featured on Microsoft Learn.
Ajit Jaokar - Course Director: Artificial Intelligence: Cloud and Edge implementations at the University of Oxford. Ajit built the course at Oxford and is a Data Scientist at his company, feynlabs. He has also conducted AI courses in the London School of Economics (LSE), Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) and as part of the The Future Society at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government.
