    Master of Science in Machine Learning and Data Science (MLDS)

    3:30 PM Krebs Classroom, Henry Crown Sports Pavilion

    EVENT DETAILS

    Join us for an insightful seminar featuring Sergey Shebalov about the resurgence of Artificial Intelligence. We will delve into real-world use cases, the challenges and opportunities in AI adoption, and the impact of AI on the travel industry.

    Lecture Summary: Artificial Intelligence is experiencing resurrection over the last several years. The number of use cases already implemented in practice and the amount of investment allocated to development and adoption of this technology indicates that this time it's here to stay. While several challenges still remain and some new ones are anticipated the path towards Al becoming as common as computer, smartphone or internet is clear. We will discuss this journey on the example of the travel industry. We'll consider several main applications of Al that already provided significant benefits, a typical process these applications go through from an idea to a full-scale adoption, and the skills required to support that process from the new generation of leaders, scientists, engineers and practitioners.

    Sergey Shebalov is a VP of Data Science and Head of Research at Sabre. He leads the Sabre Labs team responsible for development and implementation of complex Al decision support systems. Sergey holds PhD in mathematics from University of Illinois and has two decades of experience in the travel industry IT. His area of expertise is intelligent retailing,

    resource optimization and adoption of Al in practice.
