Third, any commitment to a disruptive technology (including data-intensive and AI implementations) must start with a business strategy. Those F’s are: Fragility, Friction, and FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt). These changes may include requirements drift, data drift, model drift, or concept drift.

It’s been a year filled with disruption and uncertainty. Businesses had to literally switch operations, and enable better collaboration and access to data in an instant — while streamlining processes to accommodate a whole new way of doing things. One day we were all going to the office, and the next we were working from home.

Crucially, it takes into account the uncertainty inherent in our experiments. Experiments, Parameters and Models At Youtube, the relationships between system parameters and metrics often seem simple — straight-line models sometimes fit our data well. The data showed us that metrics are not exactly straight-line functions of parameters.

by AMIR NAJMI & MUKUND SUNDARARAJAN Data science is about decision making under uncertainty. Some of that uncertainty is the result of statistical inference, i.e., using a finite sample of observations for estimation. But there are other kinds of uncertainty, at least as important, that are not statistical in nature.

From a technical perspective, it is entirely possible for ML systems to function on wildly different data. For example, you can ask an ML model to make an inference on data taken from a distribution very different from what it was trained on—but that, of course, results in unpredictable and often undesired performance. I/O validation.

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. Without large amounts of labeled training data solving most AI problems is not possible.

by NIALL CARDIN, OMKAR MURALIDHARAN, and AMIR NAJMI When working with complex systems or phenomena, the data scientist must often operate with incomplete and provisional understanding, even as she works to advance the state of knowledge. There has been debate as to whether the term “data science” is necessary.
