Machine Learning through Open Source: Podcast with Mr. Prajod S Vettiyattil, Enterprise Architect, Wipro

I just saw that beautiful dress that I was ogling at yesterday. And guess what, I saw it on a technical blog I was reading. How does the blog know my preference? Well, the answer is machine learning. The ability of a computer or a device to detect patterns and behave accordingly without being explicitly programmed to do so is machine learning. This term has literally taken the market by storm recently and its applications are vast, interesting and worth exploring.

While everyone in the field is either busy exploring machine learning or building machine learning applications, a lot still remains to be explored and unveiled. To take a further insight into the vast field and to also know how open source frameworks are used for building machine learning applications, we invited Mr. Prajod S. Vettiyattil from Wipro to HackerEarth office to speak to us at a podcast. The excerpts from the podcast can be accessed below:

What are the complex and illusive problems that ML may solve in future?

Can machines behave against our welfare and what are the checks being placed to avoid that?

Despite of the existence of big data, why is there a lack of tangible data to build ML systems?

Would large ML systems be concentrated with few big organizations because of data availability?

What pitfalls should be avoided while building ML systems?
