For all the excitement about machine learning (ML), there are serious impediments to its widespread adoption. Not least is the broadening realization that ML models can fail. And that’s why model debugging, the art and science of understanding and fixing problems in ML models, is so critical to the future of ML. Without being able to troubleshoot models when they underperform or misbehave, organizations simply won’t be able to adopt and deploy ML at scale.

It is Computer Science Education Week and in 2019 Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence are two of the most popular and influential topics in technology. That is why I was so excited when Code.org launched a training specifically aimed at the topics. It is called AI for Oceans and it is geared for children (or really anyone, I had fun with it and so did my children).

Python's plotting libraries such as matplotlib and seaborn does allow the user to create elegant graphics as well, but lack of a standardized syntax for implementing the grammar of graphics compared to the simple, readable and layering approach of ggplot2 in R makes it more difficult to implement in Python.

Metadata is an important part of data governance, and as a result, most nascent data governance programs are rife with project plans for assessing and documenting metadata. But in many scenarios, it seems that the underlying driver of metadata collection projects is that it’s just something you do for data governance. So most early-stage data governance managers kick off a series of projects to profile data, make inferences about data element structure and format, and store the presumptive metad

Big data is making the life of a consumer easier. Consumers can find new opportunities to save money by using advanced research tools, which rely heavily on big data. It isn’t always clear which deals are best. Fortunately, there are a number of big data tools that make it easier to analyze them. One of the ways customers are benefiting from big data is by finding the best broadband deals.
Speaker: Scott Sehlhorst
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.

I’m old enough to remember when multitasking was considered a good thing. From the same mouths that brought you “work smarter, not harder” came the advice to always be working on multiple things at once to improve efficiency. However, we’ve since learned that deep focus is more serial than parallel, and that trying to focus on multiple things at once.

Back in 2012, Harvard Business Review called data scientists “the sexiest job of the 21st century.” That may or may not be true, but I do believe that one of the hardest jobs in the latter half of this decade is that of the executive responsible for developing and implementing AI strategy in the enterprise.
