Track Overview

Innovations in ML Systems

As machine learning becomes more and more integral in software development, how do you make sure you are using the right tools and solving problems?  How is the metaverse and machine learning going to shape the future? How do you make sure you are creating Green Software solutions? What ethical considerations do you need to consider before and during model development?

In this track we will look at how to improve performance of ML Systems with cloud solutions and new ML development tools to save cost and reduce emissions. You will learn about operationalizing models, how to leverage cross platform deployments, create green software and start to look at how ML and the metaverse are changing the way we interact with software.
