Join us at our first in-person conference on June 25 all about AI Quality: https://www.aiqualityconference.com/ MLOps podcast #228 with Mohamed Elgendy, Co-founder & CEO of Kolena Inc., What is AI Quality? // Abstract Delve into the multifaceted concept of AI Quality. Demetrios and Mo explore the idea that AI quality is dependent on the specific domain, equitable to the difference in desired qualities between a $1 pen and a $100 pen. Mo underscores the performance of a product being in sync with its intended functionality and the absence of unknown risks as the pillars of AI Quality. They emphasize the need for comprehensive quality checks and adaptability of standards to differing product traits. Issues affecting edge deployments like latency are also highlighted. A deep dive into the formation of gold standards for AI, the nuanced necessities for various use cases, and the paramount need for collaboration among AI builders, regulators, and infrastructure firms form the core of the discussion. Elgendy brings to light their ambitious AI Quality Conference, aiming to set tangible, effective, but innovation-friendly Quality standards for AI. The dialogue also accentuates the urgent need for diversification and representation in the tech industry, the variability of standards and regulations, and the pivotal role of testing in AI and machine learning. The episode concludes with an articulate portrayal of how enhanced testing can streamline the entire process of machine learning. // Bio Mohamed is the Co-founder & CEO of Kolena and the author of the book “Deep Learning for Vision Systems”.

LatticeFlow - https://latticeflow.ai/ MLOps podcast #225 with Patrick Beukema, Head / Technical Lead of the Environmental AI, Applied Science Organization at AI2, Beyond AGI, Can AI Help Save the Planet? // Abstract AI will play a central role in solving some of our greatest environmental challenges. The technology that we need to solve these problems is in a nascent stage -- we are just getting started. For example, the combination of remote sensing (satellites) and high-performance AI operating at a global scale in real-time unlocks unprecedented avenues to new intelligence. MLOPs is often overlooked on AI teams, and typically there is a lot of friction in integrating software engineering best practices into the ML/AI workflow. However, performance ML/AI depends on extremely tight feedback loops from the user back to the model that enables high iteration velocity and ultimately continual improvement. We are making progress but environmental causes need your help. Join us fight for sustainability and conservation. // Bio Patrick is a machine learning engineer and scientist with a deep passion for leveraging artificial intelligence for social good. He currently leads the environmental AI team at the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2).
