Why Machine Learning Matters for Recruiting and Hiring.

The first time I used Waze was a revelation. This was not because of the network effects it generates, but more importantly, because of how transparently the application's user interface (UI) exposes them. This means every time I open the Waze app, I'm implicitly participating in the system. In doing so, I help improve every other user's driving experience, and as an added bonus, all the other Waze users participating around me improves mine, too. This example shows that when you're an active participant in the learning loop, everyone benefits – in this case, because everyone reaches their destination faster than we could by ourselves.
