4 Ways That Your Accurate Model May Not Be Good Enough

When we were in school and were given a problem to solve, we usually stopped working on the problem as soon as we found the answer and we recorded that answer on our paper. This might be a fair approach for elementary school assignments, but that approach is not good in higher education or in life. Unfortunately, many people continue this learned behavior into adulthood, at the university and/or on their jobs. Consequently, these people miss new opportunities for learning, discovery, recognition, and advancement. In data science, we are trained to keep searching (at least, I hope that this is true for all of us) even after we find that first model from our data that appears to answer our business question accurately.
