“I have found the FICO conference very valuable from the standpoint of seeing what others are doing and the current state-of-the-art implementations. Also, for myself it’s been very valuable to get insights into the scientists at FICO, both on the artificial intelligence side and the algorithmic side. This has helped me better understand how to use those techniques and technologies for value in my own corporation.”
