Ever since Hippocrates founded his school of medicine in ancient Greece some 2,500 years ago, writes Hannah Fry in her book Hello World: Being Human in the Age of Algorithms , what has been fundamental to healthcare (as she calls it “the fight to keep us healthy”) was observation, experimentation and the analysis of data.

For example, common practices for collecting data to build training datasets tend to throw away valuable information along the way. The lens of reductionism and an overemphasis on engineering becomes an Achilles heel for data science work. Information can get quite distorted after being abstracted that many times.

Skomoroch proposes that managing ML projects are challenging for organizations because shipping ML projects requires an experimental culture that fundamentally changes how many companies approach building and shipping software. These measurement-obsessed companies have an advantage when it comes to AI.

We are far too enamored with data collection and reporting the standard metrics we love because others love them because someone else said they were nice so many years ago. First, you figure out what you want to improve; then you create an experiment; then you run the experiment; then you measure the results and decide what to do.

Implicitly, there was a prior belief about some interesting causal mechanism or an underlying hypothesis motivating the collection of the data. As computing and storage have made data collection cheaper and easier, we now gather data without this underlying motivation.

AI PMs should enter feature development and experimentation phases only after deciding what problem they want to solve as precisely as possible, and placing the problem into one of these categories. Experimentation: It’s just not possible to create a product by building, evaluating, and deploying a single model.

As data science work is experimental and probabilistic in nature, data scientists are often faced with making inferences.

While this approach provides isolation, it creates another significant challenge: duplication of data, metadata, and security policies, or ‘split-brain’ data lake. Now the admins need to synchronize multiple copies of the data and metadata and ensure that users across the many clusters are not viewing stale information.

PS: The phrase "real-time data analysis" is an oxymoron. Real-time data is super valuable if zero human beings are involved from data collection to action being taken. You measure bounce rate and you can find those things, then figure out if the problem is at the source (ads) or destination (your site).

The tiny downside of this is that our parents likely never had to invest as much in constant education, experimentation and self-driven investment in core skills. Ask them what they worry about, ask them what they are solving for, ask them how they measure success, ask them what are two things on the horizon that they are excited about.
