BigML Events 2017

The Committee on Information Technology at the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in São Paulo, Brazil, is organizing a special event to present the impact that Machine Learning has and will have in the short future in all industries. BigML will be there to showcase several examples to the Brazilian decision makers.

Speaker: Poul Petersen, Chief Infrastructure Officer.

Machine learning constitutes a paradigm shift in the way computers can be programmed using data rather than instructions from experts in a given field. The digitization of documents, laws, verdicts and sources of evidence combined with increasingly user-friendly Machine Learning programmes are converting the legal profession into yet another industry affected by the automation of tasks which until now have required certain intellect. In this talk, we will discuss the impact of ML on our society and law firms in particular, from a down-to-earth viewpoint rather than the futuristic outlook touted by some.

Speaker: Francisco J. Martín, Co-Founder and CEO of BigML.
