Connie Fan, a data solution architect at Microsoft, joins us to share her experiences in the computer sciences, her journey as a female immigrant in a male dominated technology industry, and her perspective on the importance of diversity in this new era of AI. Some of the things we underscore in this episode: how homogeneous groups in AI programming are ultimately not good for business and for the world, how businesses should acquire high performance talent, and the importance of growth mindset in a dynamic field that is constantly changing.
