Machine learning is often spoken about as something complex and technical, yet it already shapes everyday business decisions. This session breaks machine learning down into clear, simple concepts without technical overload. The focus is on how machine learning systems learn, what they rely on, and where their limitations lie. Understanding this helps professionals ask better questions and make better decisions when machine learning tools are used in business, finance, and operations. This session does not aim to turn attendees into data scientists. It aims to build practical understanding, reduce blind trust in automated outputs, and strengthen professional judgement in an environment where machine learning is increasingly embedded in systems.
