Katarzyna Foremniak, a seasoned computational linguist with over a decade of experience in NLP and speech recognition, shares her insights. She discusses the complexities of automatic speech recognition, particularly for disordered speech, and the challenges of articulation variability. With anecdotes about consonant clusters and amusing voice recognition mishaps in automotive systems, Kasia emphasizes the need for human-centered AI and personalized ASR models to enhance communication for diverse speech patterns.

Christopher Bergh, a DataOps and observability expert, dives into the evolution and challenges of DataOps, drawing insights from his experiences at NASA and MIT. He underlines the need for a cultural shift towards automation and effective methodologies to boost data team satisfaction. The discussion also delves into optimizing data systems, navigating Kubernetes, and the importance of focusing on code versioning over data versioning. Throughout, Bergh emphasizes how culture plays a pivotal role in fostering collaboration and retaining talent within data teams.
