Presentation by: Andrey Zelenovsky, Lead Data Scientist with UiPath’s Market Intelligence Team

- What is Robotic Process Automation (RPA), how is it different from past approaches, and why is it revolutionizing the way work is done around the world?

- What aspects of AI are already being used in RPA?

- What are the major applications of AI today and what makes RPA the “Path to Artificial Intelligence”?

- What are some major recent developments in Deep Learning?

- How to choose between available pre-built models with AWS, Azure, IBM Watson, and creating your own?

Come learn how this new technology will revolutionize the global markets, and forever change how we all work day-to-day.

AI fintech applications will be explored (risk assessment, optical character recognition, contract analysis, transaction aggregation & visualization, etc…), as well as other fields.

This technology allows anyone to configure computer software, or a “robot” to emulate and integrate the actions of a human interacting within digital systems to execute a business process. Robots interpret, trigger responses and communicate with other systems in order to perform on a vast variety of tasks.
