Why Customers Can’t or Won’t Use Your Technically-Right Data Products
Brian will discuss strategies that leaders should know about designing effective data products. He’ll discuss the mindshift change around outputs and outcomes, the role of data product management, how separating “operationalization” from core ML and analytics work leads to failures, and how human-centered design provides teams a step-by-step method for “doing innovation” that leads to better data products.

Keeping Your AI/ML Data Secure
Who owns, has access and manages our data? Nowadays, we integrate AI/ML services into our business so fast that we don’t have enough time to analyze where our data are stored and how we can secure them. In this session, we tackle a part of Azure core AI/ML services from the data security point of view.

It will also show in practice how to apply this in a complex-enough data pipeline built using Apache Kafka, Debezium, MySQL, and ksqlDB.

Gender Bias in Artificial Intelligence
Good ML algorithms have bad gender biasing and go sexist most of the time. There are many challenging problems that we implicitly face but tend to ignore. These small biasing in minds do result in a big disparity in the crowd all over the world. In this conference, we will tackle this problem and try to explore ways to solve it.
