Deloitte has acquired SFL Scientific, a leading AI strategy and data science consulting firm. The move is especially interesting as SFL helped NLP-driven CLM company LinkSquares to get to grips with machine learning. In a fascinating blog post for Amazon Web Services (AWS), Michael Luk, chief technology officer at SFL Scientific, wrote: 'LinkSquares built its initial prototype using SQL running on AWS, but it wasn't using any machine learning technology. 'We learned about the team's vision to process terms and language automatically and understood the business pain points. We proposed building a custom machine learning solution to help the team scale and improve accuracy.'
