This tech talk aims to show an understandable, straightforward use case of AI and optimization applied to a problem that most of us are familiar with.

Have you ever invited friends and family to a wedding or other big dinner party? Then you have probably faced the problem of seating these guests in an optimal way so that all of your guests end up having a good time.

First, we'll show how such a problem can be modeled mathematically and solved using AI and optimization.

Next, we create a scalable cloud service that takes a problem definition as input and outputs a solution.

Finally, we reflect upon the potential of this type of service, how we utilize this in Visma today, and how you can proceed to get started yourself!
