DBS, Amazon Web Services to upskill staff' AI and ML skills

The employees will experience artificial intelligence and machine learning through a gamified learning process.

DBS has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to launch the DBS x AWS DeepRacer League. This aims to train their employees’ digital skills in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), a press release revealed.

The bank’s staff are slated to learn the basics of AI and ML by participating in a series of hands-on online tutorials before putting their new knowledge to the test by programming their own autonomous model race car. These ML models will then be uploaded onto a virtual racing environment where employees can experiment and iteratively fine-tune their models as they engage each other in friendly competitions.

Through this league, DBS expects at least 3,000 employees, including the bank’s senior leadership, to learn new AI and ML skills this year, the press release added.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
