It's a different world where a lot of the code is a one-off, building the right thing is more important than building it right (technically) and people don't really have a deep understanding (or curiosity) about the code. I don&#x

Funnily enough us, who did ML before the explosion of Deep Learning and the use cases you've mentioned, were quite clear that the challenge doesn't lie in having the greatest algorithm, but having it's product usable for the

It's as if all of the AI devex/infra companies are cargo culting the story of how the people that made the most money in the gold rush were the people who sold the tools. The thing is that the tools were well understood and battle

I am suspicious of the use of MAE as a metric. I would like to see a range of metrics, especially RMSE that penalizes large differences more. If we can pick the metric to judge the models by surely some metrics make the results look better

The point of OKRs is that doing the right thing is the most important thing for the business. But how do you know if you're doing the right thing if you don't set and measure goals? You can then reflect and learn from your success
