As an international speaker, I enjoy talking about the various paths to learning artificial intelligence, how AI can help you grow, and the positive and negative hype around the field. I have been interviewed by the Profitable Python podcast, given a talk at an international developer’s conference, and have been part of a panel discussion, all on AI.
