Alberto is an analytics executive with hands-on experience in big data analytics strategy, business development, sales, strategic partnerships, IoT, AI, predictive modeling, product design and development, and solution delivery by interacting with executives at the CXO level, acting as a trusted advisor to Fortune 500 companies, and leading data scientists and IT teams. 

In this episode, Alberto dives deep into his background and explains how he started in the data world. It’s Alberto’s role to advance artificial intelligence in any way possible. He has the skill to put things together from different places. When his parents died, Alberto realized he had a responsibility to use his experience to better other people’s lives. Struggle, doubt, and fear is part of life. However, we need to keep moving forward with artificial intelligence. Alberto has been able to talk to young people about artificial intelligence. He is fascinated with all conversations and curious about everything. 

The most significant challenge in a big company is culture. Initially, Alberto didn’t understand what business culture was. However, he realized culture comes from the top down. Everyone should be talking about artificial intelligence; it affects everyone’s lives. We are painfully unaware of how artificial intelligence is changing us. The advances are so incredible right now; there is a speed of advancement that is getting faster and faster. AI is gaining more momentum every month and every year. We should take time to think of these AI changes - we shouldn’t be riding the wave. Digital transformations are changing everything about communication. 

Later, Alberto speaks about how we need to be responsible for our own lives. There is so much information on artificial intelligence that is fake. Alberto says people think we will be experts on artificial intelligence in six months – there’s no way. New people should be coming into the industry and helping set up a new standard. They shouldn’t have a checklist to solve problems; companies need to encourage creativity. Stay tuned as Alberto speaks about cell to cell communication and what he would like to see in the future of AI.
