Virtual Stack Podcast is back after a long break! On the 37th episode of the show, I'm joined by the authors of the book "
AI as a Service",
Peter Elger (CEO, fourTheorem) and
Eoin Shanaghy (CTO, fourTheorem).
No need to mention the importance of the role that AI/ML play in digital transformation. With the incredible speed of evolution of cloud computing, it's now much easier to adopt cloud-based solutions rather than building everything by yourself. Peter and Eoin's book explain the AI as a Service with real world examples.
I have free eBook codes for this book and you'll get one if you're one of the first 5 people to share my LinkedIn and Twitter posts with your network. Besides that, you can use the code "podstack20" for a 40% discount on all Manning Publications products.
Virtual Stack is available on all major apps: Apple Podcast, Spotify, Google Podcast, Stitcher and more. As usual, feel free to share your feedback via Twitter (@emregirici), LinkedIn or virtualstack.tech.
