Optical character recognition, or OCR for short, is used to describe algorithms and techniques (both electronic and mechanical) to convert images of text to machine-encoded text.  Today on the show, Ahmad Anis shares how he applies Machine Learning to OCR for small hardware applications, for example, blurring a face in a video in real time or on a stream to safeguard privacy using AI.  The panel also discusses various strategies related to learning and soft skills needed for success within the industry.
