Description
What is machine learning, and what kinds of problems can it solve? Google thinks about machine learning slightly differently -- of being about logic, rather than just data. We talk about why such a framing is useful for data scientists when thinking about building a pipeline of machine learning models.
Knowledge
- Frame a business use case as a machine learning problem.
- Gain a broad perspective of machine learning and where it can be used
- Convert a candidate use case to be driven by machine learning
- Recognize biases that machine learning can amplify.
