• Discussing the benefits of different types of machine learning for solving business problems
• Describing the typical processes, roles, and responsibilities on a team that builds and deploys ML systems
• Explaining how data scientists use AWS tools and ML to solve a common business problem
• Summarizing the steps a data scientist takes to prepare data
• Summarizing the steps a data scientist takes to train ML models
• Summarizing the steps a data scientist takes to evaluate and tune ML models

• Matching AWS tools with their ML function

Artificial intelligence and machine learning (AI/ML) are becoming mainstream. In this course, you will spend a day in the life of a data scientist so that you can collaborate efficiently with data scientists and build applications that integrate with ML. You will learn the basic process data scientists use to develop ML solutions on Amazon Web Services (AWS) with Amazon SageMaker. You will experience the steps to build, train, and deploy an ML model through instructor-led demonstrations and labs.
