Can someone explain what's really an amazing about this? It sounds as though their using machine learning to predict tomorrow's sales in various categories. Why is this surprising or hard?
- brogue 11y agoIts not really hard to predict normal scenarios. From the article " it helped the company to predict that it would sell more frozen yoghurt in the last two days than it has in the whole year." For me, that is an extreme outlier and if they are able to predict even that, then there is something special about this algorithm.
