Katy Warr

Bio

Katy Warr works at Roke Manor Research in the UK creating solutions for complex real-world problems. She specializes in AI and data analytics and currently leads the company’s technical strategy in this area. Previously she worked at IBM UK Laboratories, architecting and developing software for a variety of distributed enterprise products with an emphasis on transactional integrity and security.

Katy gained her degree in AI and Computer Science from the University of Edinburgh at a time when there was insufficient compute power and data available for deep learning to be much more than a theoretical pursuit. Fast forward a few years and she considers herself fortunate to witness this exciting field becoming mainstream.
