Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

2. Despite the downturn in the global market, the eCommerce
industry keeps growing at a fast pace.
According to a Statista study, eCommerce sales accounted for 14.1
percent of total global retail sales, and the upward trend is set to
reach 22 percent in 2023.
As the number of digital shoppers exceeds 2 billion, market
analysts predict that by the end of 2020, cumulative eCommerce
sales volume will rise to $4.13 trillion.
99 Firms, in its Ecommerce Statistics for 2020, states that 95
percent of retail customers will conduct purchase transactions via
eCommerce by 2040.
While the e-retail market is booming worldwide, online retailers
must remain aware of and focused on the latest stats and trends
in the eCommerce industry. Staying up-to-date will enable them
to make more informed strategic decisions that drive business
growth.
INTRODUCTION
eCommerce
3. The Global Consumer Survey Report 2019 recommends that
e-commerce companies should not only measure the Return
on Investment (ROI), but they should also assess the Return on
Experience (ROX) to determine how user experience impacts their
business.
If an online retail business is to survive in the fiercely competitive
e-commerce market, it must make customer
experience a top priority, all the more so when
studies show that the percentage of shopping carts
abandoned is shockingly high at 68.8 percent.
Abandonment of shopping carts is a critical
problem in the eCommerce industry, which stems
from a variety of issues related to the website’s
design, slow-loading pages, a complicated
shopping process, payment gateway errors,
long response time, and unsatisfactory
customer interactions.
The Baymard Institute, an independent web
usability research organization, pinpointed
39 areas where a majority of eCommerce
companies need improvement to enhance user
experiences, in terms of speed, convenience,
accuracy, knowledge of customer preferences,
and 24/7 availability.
To address the difficulties end-users face, many
online retail brands are adopting AI in eCommerce
customer journey stages. AI in e-commerce enables
retailers to collect and analyze data in near real-time,
facilitating competence and efficiency in driving revenues and
enhancing personalized experiences.
In this eBook, we will delve into the use of AI in the ecommerce
industry, its applications, and the job opportunities opening up
due to AI’s growing prevalence in ecommerce.
4. AN OVERVIEW OF
AI IN ECOMMERCE
Artificial Intelligence is working ultra-fast to transform the global
retail game.
Many experts predict that AI will soon go into a turbo-drive,
with big boys such as Microsoft, Amazon, and Google investing
heavily in innovative AI technologies.
Other tech leaders, including Facebook, IBM, and Yahoo, publicly
stated that they would use AI to improve business processes.
In the eCommerce domain, major players like eBay, Amazon Go,
Home Depot, and Walmart are integrating AI solutions into their
services to make the buyer’s journey easier and seamless.
A subset of AI, Machine Learning (ML), is also gaining popularity
within the eCommerce industry for its capability to provide
computer systems with the unique ability to be in a continuous
‘self-learning-mode’ without explicit programming.
ML algorithms enable computer systems to learn automatically,
change, and improve on their own, using both past experiences
and new data, with no need for any manual intervention.
Machine Learning techniques help identify patterns and trends
in data, enable rapid analysis, real-time prediction, improved
decision-making, process optimization, etc.
5. APPLICATIONS OF
MACHINE LEARNING
IN ECOMMERCE
Personalization
In a brick-and-mortar store, when a customer has doubts,
concerns, or questions, the salesperson addresses the customer’s
problem, offers the necessary information, and helps the customer
complete the purchase.
However, in an online environment, it is difficult to convince a
customer to buy a product because the customer is not in contact
with a human salesperson.
ML technologies learn from data and enable online retailers to
provide customers with the same customized “offline” experience
in real-time.
Price Optimization
Nowadays, customers have multiple options to compare products
and prices from various websites with only a few clicks.
Therefore, it is critical for online stores to set the right price to win
a deal.
6. Machine-Learning techniques can dynamically adjust product
prices, taking into account a number of factors, including
competitors’ prices, the product’s demand, customer profile, time
of day, or peak/off-season.
Fraudulent Transaction
Detection and Protection
The eCommerce sector is highly vulnerable to cybercrime
and fraud.
One fraudulent transaction can inflict an irreparable damage
to the reputation of a brand.
Machine-Learning technologies process tedious, repetitive data at
lightning speed, detecting and preventing fraud before it occurs.
Personalized Product
Recommendations
Generating 35 percent of sales, Amazon’s Recommendation
Engine is proof that personalized product recommendations work.
But identifying the shopping trends of millions of customers and
providing them with personalized product recommendations is no
joke.
Machine-Learning tools and methodologies simplify this task.
Machine-Learning algorithms produce instant product
recommendations by analyzing customer trends and buying
behavior at a frenetic pace.
7. Self-Service Support
Providing a high level of customer service at scale can be
challenging.
An ML-powered, self-learning chatbot can not only automate the
entire customer service process, but it can also improve the user
experience by providing relevant information, smart suggestions,
and 24/7 support.
Demand and Supply Prediction
Now that companies have access to vast amounts of data, many
eCommerce enterprises are using Machine-Learning to predict
demand and supply.
Machine-Learning tools perform super-fast data analysis and
predictive analytics to extract insights that facilitate accurate and
deeper predictions.
8. APPLICATIONS
OF AI IN ECOMMERCE
AI Chatbot
It is now possible for most eCommerce websites to provide 24/7
customer support because of AI chatbots.
In earlier times, chatbots used to provide customary responses,
but now with the advent of AI and ML technologies, they have
transformed into intelligent beings with near-human intelligence.
Top eCommerce platforms are not only using AI chatbots to
deliver customer service, but they are also deploying speech-
and-text-based chatbots to assist people in making intelligent
shopping choices.
Customer Relationship Management
Human resources are important, but it is no longer the backbone
of CRM (Customer Relationship Management), as it was a couple
of years ago.
Now, Artificial Intelligence can screen large amounts of data to
help companies create a graphical story of a customer’s journey
map.
9. A visual representation of shopping patterns and interactions
enables retailers to direct their marketing activities in a correct
manner.
In addition, AI-driven CRM facilitates predictions with heightened
precision, freeing marketing teams from the tedious role of
analyzing figures, allowing them to focus on developing long-
lasting relationships with consumers.
AI and Sales Goals
eCommerce is predominantly about revenue generation and sales.
From helping brands to identify potential clients to providing
after-sales support, Artificial Intelligence can streamline sales
channels by optimizing resource allocation, analyzing team
performance, and offering clear insights into shipment trends.
Improved Decision-Making
From transactional data to campaign reports, online surveys to
social media data, and website traffic, there are multiple data
points for collecting information today.
Comprehensive and effective analysis of massive datasets to
extract actionable insights that enable informed decision-making
is not possible without applying AI algorithms.
By analyzing complex patterns in datasets, identifying shopping
trends, and predicting customer behavior, Artificial Intelligence
accelerates business decision-making with pinpoint accuracy.
10. Image Search
Major eCommerce enterprises, to augment user experiences, are
incorporating the image-search feature with the help of AI.
The feature allows buyers to search for an item by simply pointing
the camera of their smartphone at the item.
AI algorithms instantly identify the item and enable shoppers to
find it via eCommerce mobile applications, eliminating keyword-
based search.
Inventory Management
Proper management of inventory is a key area in the online retail
business, given the fact that eCommerce companies have to deal
with innumerable products.
Monitoring tens of thousands of products, tracking their current
stock and future requirements, can be a labor-intensive and time-
consuming process.
AI applications and systems help enterprises efficiently manage
their inventories, striking an accurate correlation between the
need and demand for each product category.
Customer Service
In today’s fast-paced and competitive eCommerce ecosystem,
providing first-rate customer service is crucial to ensure success.
Artificial Intelligence allows online merchants to focus on the
vital aspect of eCommerce - boosting user experience, which
eventually translates into higher conversion rates.
As personal communication is on the decline, the relevance of AI
in eCommerce will soar in the coming years.
