In a digital world increasingly driven by stories and visuals, the intersection of data streaming and large-scale analytics is paving new pathways for content creation. Ryan Daws explored this dynamic with Tom Scott, Founder and CEO of Streambased, during their conversation at the AI & Big Data Expo Global. Scott highlighted the transformative power of combining event streaming technologies, like Apache Kafka, with the analytical capabilities of streaming databases to enhance decision-making processes. Scott shared insights into how these technologies can replicate the storytelling power of traditional video formats using

prominent thought leaders. The conference aims to drive cross-border collaboration, facilitate investment, and spur innovation by connecting global tech giants, unicorn founders, policymakers, SMEs, and academia, all contributing to the future of digital transformation in Asia. GITEX ASIA 2025 will feature five co-located events: • AI EVERTYTHING SINGAPORE – a comprehensive AI exhibition. • NORTHSTAR ASIA – targeting startups and investors. • GITEX CYBER VALLEY ASIA – developing a secure ecosystem for governments and businesses. • GITEX QUANTUM QUANTUM EXPO ASIA – pioneering quantum advancements in Asia. • GITEX DIGI HEALT

finding a company aligned with your professional aspirations. Industry expert Jonny Brooks-Bartlett from Deliveroo highlighted these challenges in a thought-provoking Medium post, drawing attention to the potential mismatch between job expectations and reality. He described scenarios where data scientists are eager to deploy machine learning algorithms but find themselves entangled in foundational tasks such as data infrastructure setup and report generation. This misalignment can lead to dissatisfaction when companies, expecting quick insights, view the progress as lacking. In a conversation with Antonio Fragoso, a leadin

Artificial intelligence continues to break new ground, with Uber leading the way by redefining AI capabilities in the realm of video games. Video games, long used as a benchmark for AI prowess, have seen massive breakthroughs thanks to Uber's innovative reinforcement learning techniques. Despite the triumphs of algorithms in complex games like Go, classic video games such as Montezuma’s Revenge and Pitfall! Have remained out of reach due to their minimal immediate rewards. Traditionally, reinforcement learning relies on repeated scenario simulations where ‘rewards’ are allocated for successful actions, such as increased sc
