Nomura is a global investment bank that has been on a cloud adoption journey on Amazon Web Services (AWS) since 2019. In this video, Murali Kaundinya, managing director and head of Software Engineering, shares how Nomura used AWS DeepRacer events—a hands-on machine learning experience through a cloud-based 3D racing simulator—to help developers innovate by applying artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in an engaging way. By using a cloud-first strategy, Nomura is able to better manage risks and vulnerabilities associated with legacy applications. Nomura is also exploring generative AI use cases on AWS and collaborating with AWS Partners to understand how these capabilities can assist in creating a seamless customer experience.

Its super power is that it learns very complex behaviors without requiring any labeled training data, and can make short term decisions while optimizing for a longer term goal.
