  • 1.  Introductions- Hello Ladies of AI

    Posted Sat November 30, 2024 04:43 PM

    Hi Ladies,

    With only 23% of women in AI, our voices are essential to shaping a more inclusive and impactful future. I'm so excited to be part of this group and thought I'd kick off the introductions!

    I'm Noor Aftab, a data scientist currently working at Amazon S3. I lead strategic customer engagements, focusing on AI automations, pipelines, and products that power innovation. One of my favorite projects was designing and scaling a data lake solution to handle over 70,000 daily video content queries, enabling insights that improved user engagement and operational efficiency.

    Beyond Amazon, I'm passionate about mentoring aspiring data scientists and building thriving AI communities. As a thought leader and content creator, I share insights and lessons to inspire others to explore the incredible world of AI.

    A personal highlight for me was attending the Amazon ML Conference, where I got to meet Andrew Ng-a moment that reminded me how far AI has come and how much further we can go when diverse voices are at the table.

    On the home front, I'm a proud mother of twin girls, and we love hiking together in the beautiful trails around Seattle.

    What excites you most about AI, and how can we work together to amplify women's voices in this space? I'd love to hear your stories! 😊

    Noor, your journey is proof that women in AI aren't just part of the conversation. We are leading, shaping, and expanding what's possible. AI is that section of technology where creators show up, we bring new ideas, new solutions, and new innovations that change the game. The future of AI is diverse, bold, and limitless. I'm all in for amplifying these voices. Thank you for sharing your story.
