Too true @marktenenholtz …
What data scientists think they need for a good solution: • Bigger servers • Bigger data • Bigger models What they SHOULD be using for a good solution: • A smaller model • A deep knowledge of the data • A debugger Rapid iteration + solid theory + solid coding = success

Somehow the graphing of the spikes and troughs over time lends a clarity to the last two years which otherwise often seem a blur. It also puts in starker perspective just how much more sudden & pervasive the Omicrom surge was compared to previous waves. #Datavisualization
The US pandemic: We know what a country-wide surge looks like (wave 5). It's clear now that wave 6 (BA.2), yet still in the works, will not resemble that

Big tech equals big moves … as of last Friday, NASDAQ 100 has moved up or down by at least 1% on 73% of trading days this year, highest share since tech bust in early 2000s ⁦@Bloomberg⁩

The implications warrant consideration I think.
As part of our latest efforts toward ‘textless NLP,’ which aims to break free of reliance on text for training, we’ve achieved a new model that can generate chit-chat with pauses, ‘ums,’ and overlapping speech just from raw audio. Learn more: ai.facebook.com/blog/generat…

Really interesting work.

Indeed. Also one more indication of just how far private company valuations are lagging the trends seen in the public market.

I agree. While I fear we’re entering an era of endless debates over ‘PC’ vs ‘non-PC’ approaches at every conference, encouraging ethical reflection on societal impacts of AI/ML/DS is overdue. #datascience #ArtificialIntelligence #ai #MachineLearning #ml #deeplearning #nlp
I'm pretty excited to see mainstream ML conferences like NeurIPS and ICLR incorporating some level of ethical reflection in reviews. This is a step that I don't think even @FAccTConference and @AIESConf have taken yet. neurips.cc/public/EthicsGuid…

Still an enormous, landmark event. And a tremendous valuation. #startup #startups #tech #crypto #cryptonews #markets #Stock #stocks #ipo

Some super interesting insights about a nifty Python low-code library that helps with an always challenging area of data work: time series data analysis. #datascience #data #ArtificialIntelligence #ai #MachineLearning #ml #Analytics #python #programming
"PyCaret is an alternate low-code library that can be used to replace hundreds of lines of code with few lines only." @moezpycaretorg1 shares a tutorial on time series forecasting with PyCaret. buff.ly/2RBWdgU

Great Nature article. Boldly asks: is machine learning changing the very nature of science? My corollary: are all scientists already data scientists? #datascience #data #datascientist #ArtificialIntelligence #ai #machinelearning #ml #deeplearning #python #science #scientist
Machine learning is beginning to change not only the progress of scientific discovery, but perhaps the nature of science itself.   nature.com/articles/s41598-0…
