🎙 Episode 30 is LIVE

After 29 episodes of algorithms, models, and metrics… we’re diving into something that might matter even more—soft skills. Specifically, the 5 principles of effective AI communication that can make or break your impact as a data scientist.

🧠 Why does it matter?

Soft skills are rising fast in tech. Professionals who can clearly communicate AI outcomes are being seen as more valuable, more trusted, and more promotable (based on internal and non-public research). It's no longer optional—it's a differentiator.

📖 A story no one’s heard before...

🚀 Why you need this NOW:

Whether you’re junior or leading teams, these 5 principles will help you:

• Communicate AI outcomes with clarity and confidence
• Build trust with stakeholders
• Become the go-to person for high-impact decisions
• Future-proof your role in the age of AI

#Christmas Special🎄𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐢𝐬 𝐇𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐭. 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐁𝐢𝐚𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐍𝐨𝐭.

As 2024 comes to a close, it's time to pause and reflect on how we make decisions in data-driven projects. In this Christmas Special, we’re diving into the fascinating world of ”𝐂𝐨𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐁𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞”. 🧠✨

In this episode, you'll learn…

🎯 See how your own bias might be sabotaging your data science thinking process

🎯 Reflect on the decision-making process in 2024

🎯 Explore strategies to refine and elevate your approaches for 2025

In fact, 👾 massive algorithms built for mass usage cannot be created by one person alone—and cognitive biases are one of the reasons why.

Ever found yourself wondering, “Is data science really for me?” Or maybe you’ve asked, “What does it actually take to become a data scientist?” We’ve been there, too!

That’s why in our latest episode “Mentoring Insights: Top 5 Data Science Questions from Singapore”, we dove into some of the most common (and often intimidating) questions about breaking into the field of data science:

🌟 How do I know if data science is for me?

🎓 Which qualifications do I really need?

💡 Why isn’t a single course or bootcamp enough?

If you’re considering a career in data science or trying to navigate the next step, this episode is for you. 💙 And remember, it’s okay to feel overwhelmed at first; every expert you admire was once a beginner!

In our latest episode of Diaries of a Data Scientist we dive into one of the most pressing challenges we face today: 𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐀𝐈 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬? 👀👀

Kate recently met with a team of data scientists in Brazil, where key questions many of us have faced were raised:

— How do we make business teams trust our models❓

— How can we translate complex technical concepts into something business people 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 understand❓

— And how do we ensure our models deliver exactly what’s needed❓

In this episode, we break down 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐞𝐬 you can use to bridge the gap between tech and business, build transparency, and most importantly—gain trust.

Plus, we’re sharing 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 on making your strategies more accessible and trusted, drawing insights from our experience, the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM), and how explainability is shaping trust in tech.

Trust me, you don’t want to miss this one. 😉

Did you know? n the past year, 76% of graduating North American PhDs in AI went into industry — up from 44.4% in 2010. This shift highlights the increasingly significant role industry is playing in AI development. By 2023, industry produced 51 notable machine learning models, while academia contributed only 15. 🤯 (Statistics from the AI Index Report, 2024, Stanford)

In this episode, we explore💡:

1️⃣ The Importance of Collaboration: Discover why it's crucial for data scientists in corporate roles to collaborate with universities and the immense benefits these partnerships can bring.

2️⃣ How to Start Collaborations: We share practical ways and channels to initiate and foster collaborations between industry and academia.

3️⃣ The Downsides: We don't shy away from discussing the challenges and downsides of balancing research and corporate responsibilities as a data scientist.
