The goal of this workshop is to provide a hands-on experience on identifying potential opportunities for AI projects within your organizations and assessing the most appropriate one for the first pilot project. The workshop starts with a basic introduction to data science and AI with the main goal of clarifying often overhyped terminology of the field. We will continue by guiding participants through a structured process in which they will learn how to asses both technical requirements and business impact of an AI project. After the exercise, we will briefly discuss how the first AI project fits into wider AI transformation strategy of your organization.
