Saw this story after it was tweeted by Puni Rajah – Bosch to invest 300m euros in AI, employ 100 experts from India, USA, Germany. As ever India has done great job building its native skills base.

Silicon Valley is still the main place data scientists, in particular machine learning and AI specialists, are ending up. Pierre Etienne Bardin of Société Générale expressed the need to be more active in hiring and training succinctly in a recent post on data transformation as the new digital transformation.
