Artificial intelligence (AI)
• A field of computer science that provides the ability for a computer to
learn and reason like humans using several available techniques.
• It is an important field for those who want to extract meaningful insights
from massive amounts of data in a timely and systematic manner
AI & The Role of Machine Learning
AI today is largely powered by Machine Learning (ML)
• ML happens when a computer can take lots of data (examples) and
learn patterns from it to make predictions on new data based on those
learned patterns.

• Typical frontline store
of data (relational,

• May be hosted in
cloud if volume of data
warrants it
• If data is too big to be
useful for accessing it
you can use big data
platforms for
distributed, parallel,
high-performance
computing
• In terms of accessing,
isolating, cleaning,
transforming data,
these are the big 3.
• Python + R are
consistently used for
DS & modeling
• Most common
resources for
descriptive statistics
and dashboarding
(specialize in
descriptive stats)
• For predictive & advanced analytic
insights use Data Science/AI
platforms (and py+R) to apply the
highest quality methods.
• Cloud computing may be needed
to run heavy math for these
models.

Empowering PwC to be an Award-Winning AI Company
“The reason this is such a brilliant tool is
its ability to look at different risks, in
context, at the same time. For example,
it would be uneconomical for an auditor
to look at every single user’s pattern of
activity to decide what’s unusual. With
GL.ai, the algorithms do it for us.”
