SESSION DESCRIPTION:
In this two-part session, participants will first gain a deep insight into Artificial Intelligence (AI) and learn how it emerged from its humble beginnings to its present state. They will be able to distinguish between different attributes associated with AI such as Machine Learning, Deep Learning etc. Participants will also gain deep insight into Robotic Process Automation (RPA) and understand how this technology evolved over the years to get to the point that it has reached today. In the second half of the session, participants will engage in a practical workshop session where they will each be creating an RPA Bot of their own for keepsakes and gain enough technical knowledge to not only understand how RPA Bots work but also be able to create future bots if they feel adventurous enough to do so. In order to gain the best out of this session, participants must bring their laptops to be able to participate in the workshop.
All attendees to bring their laptops as there will be practical exercises for RPA.
Behram Faroogh has presented to the Chapter before with lots of positive feedback. This session promises to be interactive, engaging and practical.
