Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Joe Mueller. By making requests through API calls you can expand the functionality of the bots you make with SAS Conversation Designer; allowing your bots to query external sources for up-to-date information, score a model, and many other possibilities.

Feed: AWS Public Sector Blog. Author: Farhad Jahangirov. Applications running on LAMP (Linux, Apache, MySQL, and PHP) stack are ubiquitous—WordPress alone represents 38% of all content management systems. Other popular CMS applications such as Drupal and Joomla also run on LAMP as well as Moodle, a widely used learning management system (LMS). Because of the popularity of these applications, public sector organisations such as educational institutions should protect their business continuity by implementing disaster recovery (DR) solutions: policies, tools, and procedures to help the recovery or continuation of technology infrastructure and systems following a disaster. Amazon Web Services (AWS) Professional ... Read More

Feed: What's New. Author: Henning Kollenbroich. At Tableau, we believe in the power of data to make informed decisions. We have made self-service visual analytics ubiquitous, and we make it easy to analyze your data, wherever it may be.

Feed: Journey to AI Blog; Author: Cristina McComic; AI adoption is critical for business success in the changing, competitive market. A HIMMS and IBM study found that 64% of respondents said their organizations placed a “critical” or “high” strategic priority on AI. However, many organizations are still reluctant to fully adopt AI into their processes and decision-making for fear of the unknown. “To many who aren’t data scientists, AI is still a black box and that scares us,” says Kelly Combs, Director of Emerging Technologies Risk Services at KPMG. So how do organizations go about establishing trust in their AI? The ... Read More

Feed: R-bloggers. Author: Econometrics and Free Software. In this blog post, I want to discuss something that I, personally, have never seen discussed; how to create a “serverless” (or “shinyless” you could say) dashboard using R. I made one dashboard like that, which you can find here. This dashboard is running on a simple, standard web server. No Shiny involved! The idea is to create a dashboard with simple tables, graphs, and filters, to communicate results without the need for a Shiny server. The “dashboard” will be a simple html file that only needs a good old web server. Or ... Read More

Feed: SAS Blogs. Author: Josefin Rosén. Artificial intelligence is a powerful force for good and an extraordinary competitive advantage. But, as Peter Parker’s uncle Ben nicely put it, "With great power comes great responsibility.” Or as my friend the Swedish character Pippi Longstocking says, “If you are very strong you must also be very kind!” They are both onto something important: It is important to use powerful techniques responsibly. Bias in data leads to bias in output All humans are biased by nature. By bias, I simply mean our prejudices and preconceived opinions that we use, for instance, when we ... Read More
