Three years later, Analytics>Forward is happening again! Polish up that talk from 2020, make sure you’re wearing shoes, and head over to NC State Campus to spend the day with your favorite statisticians, programmers, data analysts, and actuaries. This year’s event is sponsored by RENCI.
Based on the bar camp-style conferences, the program will be set the day of the conference based on all of the exciting pitches you’ll hear first thing in the morning. Bring your 50-minute talk and a stack of business cards for a day of mathy fun with all of your favorite analysts. Your registration buys breakfast, lunch and coffee all day!
The prevalence of math anxiety and mistrust towards mathematical models are just some challenges that hinder the successful deployment of AI solutions. Moreover, analytics professionals often struggle to communicate how their solutions work. All these factors contribute to a general lack of trust in AI, making it especially difficult for analytics professionals to implement their solutions. Considering these challenges, Walt will provide insights on actionable steps that can be taken to increase the probability of successful AI implementation. And the biggest surprise is it has little to do with the data, computing power, or programming language.
Business cards, laptop, a 50-minute talk if you want to pitch a presentation, and your winning personality.
Analytics>Forward is a community event. Any attendee who wants to speak can do a 1-minute pitch for a 50-minute talk. Once all the pitches have been heard, all of the attendees vote for their favorites, and the top vote-getters are assigned time slots. Every year, we’ve had great talks from some amazing speakers. If you’ve never tried a bar camp-style conference before, Analytics>Forward will win you over!
