The Lost Art Of Software
“You might not think that programmers are artists, but programming is an extremely creative profession. It’s logic-based creativity.” — John Romero When we think of software engineers, we envision people with highly technical minds. We may go on to assume that these people did great in math and science courses. We tend to draw these conclusions […]
Getting Serious About Data and Data Science
To implement successful data programs, companies need to shift goals, muster resources, and align people. Data science, including analytics, big data, and artificial intelligence, is no longer a novel concept. Nor is the important foundation of high-quality data. Both have contributed to impressive business successes — particularly among digital natives — yet overall progress among […]

Will automation put an end to data science jobs?
Data scientists are at present particularly popular. In any case, there is simply a question regarding whether they can automate themselves out of their positions. Can artificial intelligence replace data scientists? Assuming this is the case, how much can their tasks be automated? Gartner as of late stated that 40% of data science tasks will be automated by 2020. So what sort of aptitudes can be effectively dealt with via automation? This theory adds fuel to the progressing ‘Man versus Machine’ banter.
Bias is the silent killer of well-intentioned algorithms
Bias in machine learning algorithms has come under scrutiny in countless applications, underscoring how much “silent AI” has permeated so many aspects of everyday life and influenced far-reaching, sea change decisions in business and society. The issue of machine learning and bias has especially intensified with COVID-19 lockdowns and hospital bed count predictions, police and […]
