If you asked AI to solve a Rubik’s cube, wouldn’t it be nice to understand all the steps it took to achieve the goal? In this episode, you will meet the other half of  AI: symbolic AI. It gives a step-by-step procedure that leads to its final answer. As pointed out by Abzu’s founder and CEO, Casper Wilstrup, symbolic AI helps pharmaceutical, financial, manufacturing, and logistical companies solve hard problems with confidence.  inListen to this episode if you’re interested on answering the WHY to your unsolvable business problems using trustworthy and explainable AI. Who is Casper Wilstrup? Casper is the founder and CEO of Abzu®, the Danish/Spanish research startup that builds trustworthy AI to tackle high-risk challenges.
