Is machine learning and artificial intelligence a force multiplier?
The answer is yes, with such techniques reducing the cognitive burden and enabling rapid informed decision making, but there’s a catch and a fascinating paradox.

Join Stuart for his presentation at DSEI on 11 September between 10:30 -11:00 in the Global Theatre.
