How about deep learning, is it the same?
Comment from : @caue_mssng618

I used to be really scared about switching to a career in ML because of my fear of math But now, I believe I can make it happen I'm not that bad at programming, and I can leverage prebuilt models to get started Thank you for this video!

Subscribed As a machine learning enthusiast I appreciate your work so much that it’s hard to describe with words

Your video comes in timeThanks alot I'm learning machine learning and python for about 6 months and I'm thinking of transitioning back to mobile dev because of math
Comment from : @TheUser76576

I didn’t do well in statistics I’m taking linear algebra and some basic calculus

Do you think a high level framework such as Keras is likely all that most people need in industry? Rather than something low level such as PyTorch?
Comment from : @TheWizardTower

However, you must know the basics of mathematics such as Statistics, Linear Algebra, and Probability to correctly evaluate models and know which ones to use Libraries such as SciKitLearn will not cover you every single time When you start to get into a deeper level of data science such as computer vision, NLP, or Time Series Analysis you need the understanding of the fundamentals

Hello sir i appreciate your words of wisdom and advice and giving it straight to us just one question i have a good understanding of math and i also like programming which job would allow me to build models using math ?

Thank you!

I'm going to build a model from scratch Everyone will most likely ignore me as I do it I will do it I will do it in pure C

The driving analogy is a good one because you can have 10 years experience and think you are an amazing driver but not have any idea how to change a tire or do an oil change Except with technology every 10 years a whole new method of transportation comes along and all your experience with some particular framework is obsolete and the only thing that you carry with you is the theory and concepts you picked up

Is it valuable to learn some of the math behind a model so you can produce better results with the models you train via parameter turning etc?
Comment from : @FrocketGaming

InterestingbrbrYou dont need the math to do { modelfit } but it in your best interest as a professional to understand the tools that you are using intimately

I just subscribe because this guy tells the true and also he have expirience in the field so I might listen his advices to not waste my time in stupid things

What data skills do I have to know to be a data analyst?
Comment from : @millicentkaseyi3857

Thank you so much for your video I'm doing a computer science undergrad and really want to get into this field, and I have watched a few videos Do you know if I should minor in Applied Mathematics, or one Statistics Applied Statistics is not offered, so I don't know which one to choose What's your opinion?
Comment from : @FezzyDays225

Your videos are really clearing the path that I want to take

Will Ai replace software engineer in future?😟
Comment from : @msherrynajeeb8945

I want to throw in my 2 cents as someone who does machine learning for a living (but is admittedly very new) I think Mike is correct for the vast majority of machine learning jobs out there, however there are some (in particular in the domain of signal processing, computer vision and, I'm guessing, natural language processing) that do require a fair amount of mathematics However, we aren't writing our own models either We use python libraries and frameworks, like SciKitLearn Math is used for domain knowledge, not modeling I will also attest that probably 80 of my time is spent cleansing and transforming data (so writing python code), and most of the time we use gradient boosting models Furthermore, we don't do any of the math by hand (thank God); we have libraries for that too
Comment from : @MRxPoundcakes

Are there any tech jobs that use more math? I enjoy math more than straight up coding
Comment from : @Cadet1249

I work in data analytics for a mid-size bank I've watched plenty of Mike's videos and he is telling you how it is Listen to him, follow his advice, and you are sure to get a data job Started as a traveling network technician, got an entry level data analyst job for a hospital, now working as a data analyst for the bank Thanks Mike for all your hard work and hope you continue to prosper in this awesome field of data

College is not useless It is great way to prolong your youth, learn to live without parents and get along with other people in your private area Also to enjoy some great parties and overall it's fun For DEV career yeah it is useless, but that's not the point :)
Comment from : @tomastruchly9484

Means we are good in mathematics for machine learning that doesn't mean we will be a great machine learning engineer ?brMeans machine learning engineering is far beyond than mathematics ?brRight
Comment from : @Nick-du9ss

Interestingly, I was on Indeed earlier tody and in their section about Data Analysts they give the following bullet point list of the skills needed to pursue a data analyst position:brbr-A high level of mathematical abilitybr-Programming languagesbr-Problem-solving skillsbr-Time management to meet deadlinesbr-Accuracy and consistency when preparing reportsbrbrI just thought to myself " I wonder what Mike wouldhave to say about this?"and lo and behold here we are! 🤣
Comment from : @laurenmackenzie3319

Mike I just wanna let you know how much I appreciate your work here, you are truly a Godsend, I wish nothing but the best in your life
