In his talk, Omar will explain his thesis on why voice-activated AI is the most important development to come to the workplace. The market is already demonstrating strong value in the home for these types of tools, but the work environment is quickly starting to catch up. He will pull from his experiences creating Eva, the first enterprise voice assistant focused on making meetings more actionable and he will dive specifically into the challenges of automatic speech recognition, natural language processing and neural networks that make it difficult to create these kinds of voice-activated assistants. More importantly he will speak to how he and his team have overcome these challenges.
