Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial Intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. These processes include learning (the acquisition of information and rules for using the information), reasoning (using rules to reach approximate or definite conclusions), and self-correction. AI encompasses a broad range of techniques and approaches, including machine learning, neural networks, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics, and expert systems, among others. The ultimate goal of AI is to create machines that can perform tasks that typically require human intelligence, such as understanding natural language, recognizing patterns, making decisions, and solving problems.Authentic Communicator

Machine learning is a branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and computer science that involves the development of algorithms and statistical models that enable computers to progressively improve their performance on a specific task through learning from data, without being explicitly programmed. In essence, machine learning algorithms learn from patterns and relationships in data to make predictions, and decisions, or identify patterns, often with the goal of optimizing some objective function or improving performance over time.Metadata Management

Proficiency in metadata management solutions to enable efficient data discovery, data lineage tracing, and data asset management.Process Orchestration

Process orchestration refers to the coordination and management of various tasks, activities, and resources within a workflow or business process. It involves organizing, sequencing, and automating individual tasks or sub-processes to ensure that the overall process operates smoothly and efficiently. Process orchestration typically involves integrating disparate systems, applications, and services to streamline operations and improve collaboration across different parts of an organization. It often employs workflow management tools, automation software, and integration platforms to facilitate communication, data exchange, and decision-making among different components of the process. The goal of process orchestration is to optimize the flow of work, minimize delays and bottlenecks, and enhance overall productivity and performance.Responsible Innovation
