AltaML

We had a great time welcoming University of Alberta Bachelor of Commerce students to AltaML’s Edmonton HQ as part of the YEG Industry Insights program this week! Students had the chance to learn from our team about AltaML’s journey, agentic AI in action, and how applied AI is creating real impact across industries—followed by an office tour, networking, and some great questions about our work and culture. Thanks to the Alberta School of Business and the YEG Industry Insights organizers for stopping by! #AppliedAI #AltaML #Edmonton #FutureTalent #UAlberta

Big news! We’re partnering with Knower Tech, a leader in digital advertising solutions, to develop an AI agent that accelerates the media buying process and enhances campaign performance. Acting like an experienced marketing analyst, the agent takes in a campaign plan, makes smart adjustments, and inputs all required information into the relevant ad management platform. Human analysts can then make final tweaks before approving the campaign for launch. This collaboration reflects how applied AI can streamline complex workflows, reduce costs, and empower people to focus on strategy and creativity. Together, AltaML and Knower Tech are shaping the next generation of AdTech.

We love seeing our Associates making an impact beyond the walls of AltaML. 👏 This week, Siddharth Pathak delivered a guest lecture on #ResponsibleAI to graduate students in the University of Alberta’s Applied Machine Learning program, sharing how AltaML approaches fairness, transparency, and accountability in AI design and deployment. It’s a proud moment that reflects what our Associate program is all about: giving emerging talent the chance to contribute meaningfully to the future of applied AI, while helping shape the next generation of responsible innovators. Thank you, Sid! #AppliedAI #AIForGood #AltaML #EthicalAI #Leadership #Innovation

For energy and industrial organizations, one of the biggest challenges isn’t the lack of data. It’s the overwhelming noise that comes with it. When signals are buried in complexity, human judgment risks being diluted instead of sharpened. In a recent discussion with Emerj, AltaML’s Rick Garza shared an important perspective: AI isn’t here to replace expertise. It’s here to enhance it. By filtering through noise and tailoring insights to individual decision-makers, applied AI empowers people to focus on what matters most. This balance—AI for scale, humans for judgment—is at the heart of responsible adoption. #AppliedAI #OperationalIntelligence #EnergyInnovation #EnterpriseAI

Government Innovation Week (GIW) Alberta is almost here!   AltaML’s Chantal Ritcey and Raeann Newell will join public sector leaders to explore how AI can unlock efficiencies and drive better outcomes for citizens. Don’t miss Chantal’s presentation: 🔈 From Algorithms to Attitudes: Guiding People Through the AI Shift 📍 Edmonton Expo Centre | Edmonton, AB 🗓️ October 8, 2025 | 9:40–10:00 AM In this talk, Chantal will share practical ways to overcome common AI adoption challenges in the public sector. Later in the day, she’ll lead a roundtable discussion on guiding teams through periods of challenge and change. We’re looking forward to an inspiring event that showcases how applied AI can create real-world impact for communities. ➡️ Learn more about the event here: https://lnkd.in/gX_h5tkD CC: Public Sector Network #AppliedAI #PublicSectorInnovation #GovTech #GovernmentInnovation #GIW2025

Applied AI is transforming public services, and today, our work with Microsoft is in the spotlight in Technology Record. Together, AltaML and Microsoft are building and scaling public sector AI solutions on #MicrosoftAzure that deliver real-world impact. From supporting wildfire risk assessment to streamlining inspections of municipal infrastructure, these projects show how governments can deliver smarter, faster services that matter to communities. Thanks to Doug Priest, PhD for highlighting our work, and to the rest of the Microsoft team for your continued collaboration in driving responsible, real-world innovation! ➡️ Read the full issue here—or head to pages 152 and 158 to see our solutions in action: https://lnkd.in/e67qXVmv #AppliedAI #GovTech #AltaML #Microsoft #ArtificialIntelligence #PublicSectorInnovation

Earlier this month, we released the 2024-2025 GovLab Impact Report, highlighting how applied AI is transforming public sector services across Alberta. One powerful example: our collaboration with Alberta Health Services. By consolidating 14 years of cancer centre data, GovLab and AHS are building machine learning models to better predict workload and workforce needs. These insights will help reduce wait times, improve patient care, and support a more resilient health system. Says Dr. Paula Robson, Scientific Director at AHS: “Our GovLab tenancy has rapidly upskilled our team and accelerated progress beyond what we could have achieved alone.… We have demonstrated that health system data can be used innovatively and ethically to shape the future of healthcare.” 📖 Explore the full GovLab Impact Report: https://lnkd.in/gGvAceey

Congratulations to our colleagues at Jurisage, incubated by AltaML, on the launch of their new Table of Authorities (TOA) Builder tool! 🎉 For legal professionals, creating a TOA has traditionally been a time-consuming, manual task. Jurisage’s new agentic AI–powered tool automates the process, saving time while improving accuracy—and delivering up to 5x ROI for every TOA created. We’re proud to see Jurisage continue to push the boundaries of GenAI in legal tech. Innovations like this showcase how AI is transforming industries in practical, high-impact ways. Learn more about the TOA Builder in the comments.👇 CC: Craig Haney, Aaron Wenner, Juliano Rabelo, Ariel Nacson #AppliedAI #LegalTech #ArtificialIntelligence #AltaML #Jurisage

✨ It’s here!

Alberta has the talent, research, and natural advantages to be a global AI hub. The question is: how do we get there? On Alberta Edge, The Hub Canada podcast, our Co-Founder, Nicole Janssen, joined AI leaders from across Alberta to discuss how to seize this generational opportunity. 📢 Watch the podcast here: https://lnkd.in/gE-U4xdD The conversation touched on: - Why Edmonton is a world leader in reinforcement learning - How Alberta’s natural advantages make it a strong candidate for AI infrastructure like data centres - Real-world applications of AI in government, healthcare, energy, and beyond - The challenges of commercialization, procurement, and AI literacy in Canada - Why thinking about AI as reinvention—not replacement—is critical for the future of work #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #AlbertaTech #AltaML #TheHubCanada #AlbertaEdge
