## Resource

Summary The increasing sophistication of machine learning has enabled dramatic transformations of businesses and introduced new product categories. At Assembly AI they are offering advanced speech recognition and natural language models as an API service. In this episode founder Dylan Fox discusses the unique challenges of building a business with machine learning as the core product. Announcements Hello and welcome to the Machine Learning Podcast, the podcast about machine learning and how to bring it from idea to delivery. Predibase is a low-code ML platform without low-code limits. Built on top of our open source foundations of Ludwig and Horovod, our platform allows you to train state-of-the-art ML and deep learning models on your datasets at scale. Our platform works on text, images, tabular, audio and multi-modal data using our novel compositional model architecture. We allow users to operationalize models on top of the modern data stack, through REST and PQL – an extension of SQL that puts predictive power in the hands of data practitioners. Go to themachinelearningpodcast.com/predibase today to learn more and try it out! Your host is Tobias Macey and today I’m interviewing Dylan Fox about building and growing a business with ML as its core offering Interview Introduction How did you get involved in machine learning? Can you describe what Assembly is and the story behind it?  For anyone who isn’t familiar with your platform, can you describe the role that ML/AI plays in your product? What was your process for going from idea to prototype for an AI powered business?  Can you offer parallels between your own experience and that of your peers who are building businesses oriented more toward pure software applications? How are you structuring your teams? O…
