Are Data Scientists more prone to stage fright than others? Our very own Linoy Cohen gladly busts that myth, swiftly taking over the main stage at the #AWSTLVSummit last week in front of hundreds of engineers and developers. As a data scientist at our Analytics, AI and Data group (A2D), LLMs are really in Linoy’s comfort zone. Talking confidently about customizing foundation models for specific applications and use cases, she sure seemed like she knows what’s she’s talking about – and enjoying every minute.

Going green 💚 is not just the right thing to do, it can also totally transform your mornings! Why sit in traffic and get annoyed by that SUV that just cut you off, when you can lean back in your comfy leather seat, chill with some music from your headphones or chime into the chat of some AI researchers sitting up front? We’re proud to launch our new shuttle service: 3 lines covering most of the Central district. Join the ride and kiss your morning stress goodbye. Because, hey – your Mazda deserves to work from home too 😃

Time flies when you’re having fun… We were excited to celebrate a major milestone today with Intuit Israel’s 10-year anniversary. In summer of 2014 Intuit has made its first acquisition in our local ecosystem, and has since grown to reach 500 employees - positioning itself as a strategic development center for the entire company. Here’s to another decade of coding creativity!

AI has long been considered a game changer in unleashing untapped human potential. And in no domain is this potential for doing good greater than in the field of medicine. We are extremely proud of our Machine Learning expert Dr. Guy Shtar who was invited to share his experience onstage at the AI for Biology Track at the Tel Aviv University AI Week conference, speaking alongside leading scholars in the intersection of AI and life sciences. Go Guy!

How can we sum up Women in Data Science (WiDS) Tel Aviv, the premier event for women in data sciences that took place last week in TLV? In one word: AGAIN! Intuit Israel is proud to have sponsored this incredible conference for the 7th year in a row, led by our fantastic WiDS ambassadors and #DataScientists: Or B., Noah Eyal Altman, and Nitzan Gado, along with the support of Naama Shenhav Cohen.

Do you ever dream of speaking at a big tech conference but don’t know where to start? Many engineers get blocked by the dreaded call for proposals (CFP) barrier : they have a brilliant idea, but somehow it gets lost when trying to put it on paper. At Intuit, we believe in helping our people shine, and that’s exactly why we’ve held a Call for Proposals Workshop, dedicated to the process of creating an effective and compelling project submission that will help them stand out from all other speakers, increasing their chances in getting the ticket to the front stage. The two sessions we’ve offered this week at our office were fully booked, with developers flocking to get winning tips from Moran Weber - a phenomenal speaker and a seasoned mentor in coaching tech folks to deliver their message on the big stage.
