Call for demos: AI Tinkerers Toronto is looking for demos for the upcoming Spooky Botober - Haunted AI Meetup at Mozilla, on Oct. 30th. RSVP and get your demo proposal in, friends! https://lnkd.in/gW5-Bkin What is AI Tinkerers? Glad you asked. This is a monthly haunt for AI / ML wizards, and on the month of Botober, the meetup is taking on a darker twist as we delve (step by step!) into the powers of Haunted AI. We're not that interested in spooky AI models which have feasted on huge chunks of the internet, but rather those that have sipped delicately on hand-curated artisanal datasets. Join us to connect with fellow creators and share your haunted AI projects!

Just one proof point for a quick read: Migrating to AWS can significantly reduce the total cost of ownership (TCO) by up to 66 percent for compute, storage, and networking. The outdated perception of cloud being expensive stems from a narrow focus on migration costs, ignoring long-term value such as increased productivity, resilience, agility, and sustainability. Unlike over-provisioning on premises, cloud dynamically adjusts resources, minimizing excess costs.

🌟 Reflecting on an Incredible Journey 🌟 As my 4-month co-op term as a Senior Co-op Technologist (Software Development) at Seneca Polytechnic comes to an end, I'm filled with gratitude and a sense of accomplishment. 🎉 From the outset, I was warmly welcomed by my team and guided by amazing mentors. In my first month, I dove into testing student forms in PeopleSoft Campus Solutions, navigating manual testing and eventually moving into form development. This was just the beginning of an enriching journey. Throughout this experience, I had the chance to work on the PeopleSoft PUM upgrade, delving into new features, testing them, and collaborating with cross-functional teams to assess their value for the business. This project was a fantastic opportunity to engage in both development and quality assurance, expanding my technical and analytical skills. During my fourth month, I took on the challenge of creating test documents for automation. This task was crucial in streamlining future testing processes and allowed me to understand the intricacies of automation in software development. Daily scrum meetings played a key role in refining my approach, with invaluable feedback from my peers and mentors that guided my progress. Key Learnings: 1. Iterative Development & Feedback: Weekly sessions were instrumental in refining my work and enhancing my development skills. 2. Technical Documentation: Creating detailed test documents honed my attention to precision and clarity, a vital aspect of successful automation. 3. Collaboration: Working with cross-functional teams deepened my understanding of integrating different perspectives into software projects. As I wrap up this co-op experience, I'm excited to carry forward these learnings into future endeavors. A heartfelt thank you to my team members and mentors, Your support and guidance have been invaluable. Looking forward to the next steps in this journey! 😇 #CareerUpdate #CoopExperience #SoftwareDevelopment #AutomationTesting #Grateful #LearningJourney
