The author has given valuable insights into the ML algorithms behind Cognitive tools using real-world examples. It is very interesting to see how Power BI is capable of solving various problems in our daily lives using forecasting, natural language processing, and computer vision models. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book." - Vijay Suda, Senior Solution Architect, Azure Cloud, Data & AI, Microsoft, USA "This book enables you to understand how to use artificial intelligence within Power BI to solve key business problems. Taking a steady pace, the book ensures that the reader goes from easy-to-use solutions to a deeper understanding of how to implement more advanced solutions" - Leon Gordon, Microsoft Data Platform MVP and Director of Analytics at Onyx Data "The book is written in a very clear and straightforward manner. It is specifically suited for analysts who are very new to the world of AI. For this reason, the first part of the book presents an excellent introduction to the basic concepts of AI, data exploration, and data preparation. In addition, only Power BI's "no code" functions are used to interface with Microsoft's artificial intelligence platforms on Azure, precisely so as to not overburden the novice analyst's learning with the use of R or Python code. In the end, I would definitely recommend this book to those who need to take the very first steps in integrating Power BI with the world of artificial intelligence using out-of-the-box Power BI AI features, Azure machine learning, and Azure cognitive services." - Luca Zavarella, Head of Data & AI at iCubed, Microsoft MVP for AI Product Description Learn how to create your own AI model and consume it in your Power BI reports to gain better insights from your data Key Features Learn how to gain better insights from your data by applying different AI techniques within Power BI Save time by creating machine learning models independently and integrating them within your BI reports Understand how to combine Cognitive Services and Azure Machine Learning together with Power BI Book Description The artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities in Power BI enable organizations to quickly and easily gain more intelligent insights from unstructured and structured data.
