There are a dozen artificial intelligence conferences where researchers push the boundaries of science and show how neural networks and deep learning architectures can take on new challenges in areas such as computer vision and natural language processing. But using machine learning in real-world applications and business problems--often referred to as "applied machine learning" or "applied AI"--presents challenges that are absent in academic and scientific research settings. Applied machine learning requires resources, skills, and knowledge that go beyond data science, that can integrate AI algorithms into applications used by thousands and millions of people every day. Alyssa Simpson Rochwerger and Wilson Pang, two experienced practitioners of applied machine learning, discuss these challenges in their new book Real World AI: A Practical Guide for Responsible Machine learning. Rochwerger, a former director of product at IBM Watson, and Pang, the CTO of Appen, draw on their personal experience and knowledge to provide many examples of how organizations succeeded or failed in integrating machine learning into their products and business models.

Applied machine learning requires managing uncertainty. There are many sources of uncertainty in a machine learning project, including variance in the specific data values, the sample of data collected from the domain, and in the imperfect nature of any models developed from such data. Managing the uncertainty that is inherent in machine learning for predictive modeling can be achieved via the tools and techniques from probability, a field specifically designed to handle uncertainty. In this post, you will discover the challenge of uncertainty in machine learning. A Gentle Introduction to Uncertainty in Machine Learning Photo by Anastasiy Safari, some rights reserved.

Machine Learning is currently one of the hottest topics out there. The working place of tomorrow is related to ML. No wonder that interest has drastically risen. The difficult question for beginners is how to get into it. From my personal experience the best way is to get one's hands dirty and apply machine learning in practice.
