Summary

Summary Machine learning is a data-hungry approach to problem solving. Unfortunately, there are a number of problems that would benefit from the automation provided by artificial intelligence capabilities that don’t come with troves of data to build from. Christopher Nguyen and his team at Aitomatic are working to address the "cold start" problem for ML by letting humans generate models by sharing their expertise through natural language. In this episode he explains how that works, the various ways that we can start to layer machine learning capabilities on top of each other, as well as the risks involved in doing so without incorporating lessons learned in the growth of the software industry. 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.

Your host is Tobias Macey and today I’m interviewing Christopher Nguyen about how to address the cold start problem for ML/AI projects Interview Introduction How did you get involved in machine learning? Can you describe what the "cold start" or "small data" problem is and its impact on an organization’s ability to invest in machine le…
