In less than a week, the Petuum team will be heading to Vancouver, Canada, for the Thirty-third Conference on Neural Information Processing Systems (NeurIPS) to showcase how Petuum is transforming the real world with AI.

We at Petuum are incredibly humbled to be named by CIO Bulletin as one of the 30 Great Places to Work 2019. As someone lucky enough to be part of this super talented team, it has been amazing to watch how this team works from the inside.

The last few years have been an exciting time to be in the field of NLP. The evolution from sparse frequency-based word vectors to dense semantic word representation pre-trained models like Word2vec and GloVe set the foundation for learning the meaning of words.

When AI first became technologically feasible, the only people who were trying to harness the true potential of AI were programmers and engineers with advanced degrees in mathematics. Not anymore.

Petuum braved the wind, rain, and the (too quickly approaching) fall temperatures to attend our second PI World of the year and to present attendees with the best artificial intelligence (AI) solutions to capitalize on their current investment with OSIsoft.

In an industry where unanticipated mechanical behavior or equipment failure can be fatal, safety is an ever-present concern and priority. With industrial AI solutions now operating in factories all over the world, we have to ensure that every process is performing exactly as it was designed.
