    1/ Experimentation is a critical tool to move your business and your understanding of customers forward. Unfortunately, most experiments are bad. What’s the difference between a good experiment and a bad experiment? [credit to for the style]

    Republican Senators know — he did it — it’s impeachable — they’d have impeached Obama for it — Trump will do it again — the republic is threatened And don’t care.

    Yes! This sentence is the crux of AI ethics, IMO. Forget how the tech works coming out of the lab or how it works in unsupervised environments. Who ultimately determines how it's implemented, managed, and turned on or off (!) is who gives your AI its ethics.

    The Republicans feel comfortable sticking finger in the eye of 75 percent of Americans because they know that America is a democracy in name only and until Democrats recognize that fact and make democratic reform issue #1, we will repeat this situation until the planet melts.

    Here's the ugly truth at the core of all of this: the president actually can do whatever he wants - rob, cheat, steal, murder - if he can hold 34 senate votes.

    Excited to release a library for explaining ML models using counterfactual examples. The idea is simple--explain a prediction by the minimal changes that would lead to a different outcome--but turns out generating a diverse set is challenging. 1/3

    I think about toil for data teams a lot (toil as defined ). Lots of "data analyst" roles are just toil - repetitive, tactical, no judgement report prep. As a leader you can easily 5x their output by managing their toil - delegate, delete, defer.

    This does not mean our job is done. If McConnell doesn't have the votes right now to block witnesses, it's on us to make sure he *continues* to not have the votes. Hold their feet to the fire and KEEP CALLING YOUR SENATORS! 🔥📞🔥
