Recap: ML@GT Fall Seminar Series

Throughout the fall semester, the Machine Learning Center at Georgia Tech was fortunate to bring world-class researchers, academics, and industry professionals to Georgia Tech’s campus as a part of our Fall Seminar Series. From using machine learning in retail strategy to few-shot learning to understanding the limitations of artificial intelligence, our guest speakers inspired our students to think differently and keep pushing boundaries.
