Summary:  Looking at the 12 hottest world-changing segments in the VC-funded world shows that AI will play a key role.  Here’s a little more detail.

From the inside of the data science profession looking out it’s easy to imagine that almost everything that is or will be important somehow depends on AI.  Maybe…

AI-based technologies reached a new level of adoption in 2019 as businesses learned more about what exactly AI could do for them. 2020 promises to be even more exciting, with AI systems continuing to mature and companies extending usage and applications to address highly specialized needs. In the year ahead, organizations will be empowered to allocate resources even more wisely while achieving greater efficiency.

Here are my top predictions for AI in…

Thinking of data science as merely a technical profession, like programming, may take you away from your goals. Focusing on the usability of mathematics for data science before jumping into full-fledged math courses will save you a lot of time.

I wrote this blog post because I made a few mistakes while starting…

Summary:  There have been several stories over the last several months around the theme that AI is about to hit a wall.  That the rapid improvements we’ve experienced and the benefits we’ve accrued can’t continue at the current pace.  It’s worth taking a look at these arguments to see if we should be adjusting our plans and expectations.

Walking by the hottest IT streets in these days means you've likely heard about achieving Streaming Machine Learning, i.e. moving AI towards streaming scenario and exploiting the real-time capabilities along with new Artificial Intelligence techniques. Moreover, you will also notice the lack of research related to this topic, despite the growing interest in it.

If we try to investigate it a little bit deeper then, we realize that…

Quite often, non-technical executives have difficulties understanding what programming, on a very fundamental level, is all about. Because of that knowledge-gap, they tend to hire and overburden experienced data professionals with tasks which they are hopelessly overqualified for. Such as, for example, doing ad-hoc SQL queries on CRM data: "You're the go-to-guy for all things data, and we need the results for the board meeting tomorrow." That's a quite humbling and frustrating…

Technology decision-makers are (and also should keep) seeking methods to successfully carry out artificial intelligence innovations into their businesses and, therefore, drive value. And though all AI innovations most definitely have their own merits, not all of them deserve purchasing, with each passing day we come across a number of AI development techniques.

If something and also only one thing occurs after you read this write-up, we hope it is that you are…

Over the last few years, Excel has been redesigned from the ground up. Currently, Microsoft is making the new Excel core-features available to every user, regardless of your Office 365 license. Thanks to the Microsoft naming conventions, it is easy to confuse the new features with existing ones. That being said, Power Query and Power Pivot are not the same things as Pivot Tables, which you have likely been using for years.…

Summary:  Too many solutions.  We are at an inflection point where too many vendors are offering too many solutions for moving our AI/ML models to production.  The very real risk is duplication of effort, fragmentation of our data science resources, and incurring unintended new technical debt as we bind ourselves to platforms that have hidden assumptions or limitations in how that approach problems.

(I will give you a hint. It’s in the name.)

Scientists!

When we take into account the insurance and banking industry, data plays a central role in it. Insurance is a people-centric business. A business that heavily relies on an individual’s data to the maximum extent possible. And the data Insurance providers and carriers have access to more of such data than ever before. The amount of data, we as humans have created in the past two years is simply unprecedented. …

 “Artificial Intelligence is one of the most important things humanity is working on. It is more profound than electricity or fire,” says Google CEO Sundar Pichai.

Comparing artificial intelligence with fire or electricity may perhaps be a bold statement. However, you never know, it may just be true.

Artificial intelligence is on track to take over the world. By 2030, every area that is influenced by AI will cause a huge impact on our daily lives, a study by Stanford…

Ever since the payment systems existed, there were always people who would find sophisticated ways to get to someone’s finances illegally. It has become a major problem in the modern era when all transactions can easily be completed online with only entering your credit card information. Even in the 2010s quite a lot of American retail website…
