TODAY, on August 3 at 20:00, there will be a broadcast with Sergei Shirkin on how to build a successful career in AI. The stream can be viewed in any of our social networks - wherever it is convenient, watch there. Sergey Shirkin is one of the founders of the faculties of Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics and Data Engineering of the Geek University online university, where he works as a dean and teacher.
Studied biostatistics at Moscow State University. MV Lomonosov, in the same place he first began to apply machine learning methods, when it was not yet in trend.
He was engaged in automation of financial technologies and databases at Sberbank and Rosbank, building financial models based on machine learning and analytical activities at Equifax. Predicts TV viewing using artificial intelligence methods at Dentsu Aegis Network Russia. Visiting Lecturer at the Higher School of Economics (Master's program in Data-Driven Communication).
He also explores quantum computing in applications to AI and machine learning.
Research in this area started in the middle of the last century, but the most impressive achievements - both in research and in practical application - have been seen since the beginning of 2010. Those who have just started studying the subject have a good chance to become an irreplaceable professional in the near future ...
To become a specialist in the field of artificial intelligence, you need to gradually advance in several directions at once: programming, mathematics, various subject areas.
Particular attention should be paid to theoretical knowledge: in the future, they will help to more meaningfully relate to the profession. There is a huge bonus here - the theory, unlike technology, is almost never outdated.
What will the broadcast be about?
During the stream, Sergey will talk about everything about a career related to artificial intelligence: what professions are there, which one to choose, how to study and prepare for an interview for jobs related to AI. He is ready to answer the questions of beginners who have not yet started their journey and the questions of experienced guys. Sergey will answer your questions and tell you more
