ODSC (Open Data Science Conference) AI

AI agents are only as good as their context. Most AI systems still rely on batch pipelines and stale data — which makes real-time decision-making nearly impossible. In this webinar on May 7th, we’ll show how context engineering + real-time data streaming enable AI agents to act with fresh, accurate information. Learn how to: 🔹 Build real-time AI agents with Vertex AI 🔹 Use MCP to connect agents with live data 🔹 Combine Confluent + Google Cloud for low-latency AI systems 🎤 With Dr. Sean Falconer (Confluent) Save your spot - hubs.li/Q04fhzjy0

Building on last year’s post, we’re checking out open-source data visualization datasets that you can use for your projects. #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #DataScience hubs.li/Q04fhLCp0

AI agents aren’t just chatting anymore - they’re executing. Tools like OpenClaw, Claude Cowork, and MCP are pushing AI beyond prompts and into real workflows. Join us in London for a practical look at what’s actually working in agentic AI in 2026. 🎤 Sheamus McGovern (Founder, ODSC AI) 📅 May 7 | 6–8 PM 📍 London What to expect: 🔹 How agents are automating real workflows 🔹 Where MCP fits into production systems 🔹 What “AI coworkers” actually look like today 👉 Save your spot: hubs.li/Q04fhmCp0

A new survey from DataRobot reveals why most AI projects fail to deliver value, highlighting gaps in tools, skills, & more. #DataScience #ODSC #ArtificialIntelligence #AI hubs.li/Q04f5sLh0

🎙️In this episode, we speak with @nouhadziri, Research Scientist at Cohere and an award-winning AI researcher whose work has been recognized at top conferences like NeurIPS and NAACL. Nouha’s research focuses on understanding the limits of large language model reasoning, how reinforcement learning can push beyond those limits, and what comes next with multi-agent systems. 🎧 Listen to the full episode here → hubs.li/Q04f5qvB0

Amazon plans to invest up to $25 billion more in Anthropic, signaling a push in AI infrastructure and competition among hyperscalers. #DataScience #ODSC #ArtificialIntelligence #AI hubs.li/Q04f5sKg0

Most AI startups don’t fail on ideas – they fail on execution. So what does it actually take to build an AI-native app with an edge? Join ODSC AI + super{set} in SF for a practical look at how teams are going from idea → MVP → real users in months. 🎤 Vivek Vaidya (super{set}) 🎤 Gal Vered (hubs.li/Q04f5q9t0, ex-Google) 👉 RSVP: hubs.li/Q04f5lnQ0

IBM and Adobe deepened their collaboration to deliver AI-powered experience orchestration, helping organizations improve marketing overall ops. #DataScience #ODSC #ArtificialIntelligence #AI hubs.li/Q04f5YgL0

What can you build in 24 hours with real product data? At the ODSC AI x Zerve Datathon, teams didn’t just explore ideas — they delivered working solutions under real constraints. After a full day of focused building, collaboration, and decision-making, here are the teams that stood out: 🥇 1st Place: The Binary Duo Sneha Lokesh, Aakash Balyan 🥈 2nd Place: Hackstreet Boys Nikhita Shankar, Manas Tokal 🥉 3rd Place: Team Harash Harshith Vasantha Rajkumar, Harshit Satishkumar, Ashwin Gurumurthy From product analytics insights to applied AI workflows, these teams showed what’s possible when you combine the right data with the right approach. 👏 Thank you to our judges for their time and expertise: Josh Reini, Sheamus McGovern, Greg Michaelson #ODSCAI #Datathon #DataScience #MachineLearning #AIBuilders #Hackathon #Analytics #AICommunity

Thank you to all our incredible partners for helping to make this event a huge success and keeping us all at the cutting-edge of AI solutions! We can't wait to see you at future conferences.

Thank you to our speakers for sharing their time, knowledge, and love for data science and AI! We can't wait to see you at future conferences.

Thank you to our attendees for bringing your energy, curiosity, and love for data science and AI! We can't wait to see you at future conferences!

Attending #ODSCAIEast today? Join our cofounder @mcarbin at 2:35 PM ET in the Keynote Room. “Nonlinear Dynamics as the Next Substrate for Intelligence” explores a fundamental idea: we may be building AI on the wrong substrate. The human brain runs on ~20 watts. Today’s AI systems require orders of magnitude more. That gap isn’t just engineering, it’s architectural. Michael will share why moving beyond digital computation toward nonlinear physical dynamics could unlock a radically more efficient path to intelligence.

Before you scale LLMs, understand their limits. Today’s keynote at ODSC AI East: Nouha Dziri (Cohere Labs) → Where current LLMs fall short → What it takes to make them more reliable → How safety and capability evolve together 🕤 9:30 AM — Free session Watch live: hubs.li/Q04d-LcP0 #ODSCAI #ODSC

Day 3 of ODSC AI East. More sessions, more conversations, and more practical insights from teams building with AI. #ODSCAI #ODSC
