data science

In this episode of the Data Show, I speak with Cassie Kozyrkov, technical director and chief decision scientist at Google Cloud. She describes "decision intelligence" as an interdisciplinary field concerned with all aspects of decision-making, and which combines data science with the behavioral sciences. Most recently she has been focused on developing best practices that can help practitioners make safe, effective use of AI and data. Kozyrkov uses her platform to help data scientists develop skills that will enable them to connect data and AI with their organizations' core businesses.

We had a great conversation spanning many topics, including:

How data science can be more useful

The importance of the human side of data

The leadership talent shortage in data science

Is data science a bubble?

Make Data Science More Useful

In this episode of the SuperDataScience Podcast, I chat with founder and CEO at Daisy Intelligence, Gary Saarenvirta. You'll learn about dangerous implicit assumptions, the power of theory and theory versus data. You'll also learn about two types of decisions,  the spacial interaction model, traffic flow model, the concept of dividing the world in two and what humans should be doing, and what artificial intelligence should be doing. You will hear about the difference between artificial intelligence that leverages just data versus artificial intelligence that leverages theory and data, and what advantages that creates.
