Integrity of statistical estimates based on Data. Having spent 18 years working in various parts of the Insurance industry, statistical estimates being part of the standard set of metrics is pretty familiar to me [7]. The thing with statistical estimates is that they are never a single figure but a range. million ± £0.5

Early iterations of the AI applications we interact with most today were built on traditional machine learning models. For example, Apple made Siri a feature of its iOS in 2011. Reactive AI stems from statistical math and can analyze vast amounts of data to produce a seemingly intelligence output.

– as it shows actual real human interactions (unlike, "trust us you reached a lot of people") as people actually clicked somewhere on your post (awesome metric). Virality is also really interesting (again, actual human interaction), people who "create a story from your post" (share etc). Go do that.

We founded MemSQL (the original name of SingleStore) in 2011. Around 2011, we worked with a hot gaming company with a real-time analytics use case to understand what their users were doing in the moment to optimize the gaming experience by monitoring how users interacted with the game.

If you are curious, here is a April 2011 post: The Difference Between Web Reporting And Web Analysis. Ok, maybe statistical modeling smells like an analytical skill. With that as context, you can imagine how heart-broken I was when Jane shared the following visual from a study done by Econsultancy and Lynchpin. You lose twice.

Consider deep learning, a specific form of machine learning that resurfaced in 2011/2012 due to record-setting models in speech and computer vision. Use ML to unlock new data types—e.g., images, audio, video. Tackle completely new use cases and applications. How much model inference is involved in specific applications?
