Speaking at the analytics in action series is a good opportunity to discuss issues that are being constantly raised with the AI community. For example, how do we formalise the discipline, how do we act on legislative requirements, how do we model safely and robustly? In this session Dr Oldfield introduced the new professional accreditation for AI Practitioners by the Institute of Science and Technology and also the Educational Quality mark that the IST now awards to academic and commercial training providers. This goes some way to closing the gaps that the QAA refuse to deal with by updating the critical benchmark statements on Maths/Stats and OR. It also answers many of the recommendations within Dr Oldfield’s empirical studies and published papers.
