Congratulations you just got hired at Keiko Corp. they're the latest Silicon Valley startup to hit the
scene.
They help analyze data of large companies and consult on what companies should do with their data they
do.
Autonomous vehicles security cameras.
They have an online dating app and Web site.
They even have drones and they also offer their services like Amazon to other big companies or startups.
And you just got hired.
Awesome.
Wait.
What is your role.
Well you're the new machine learning and data science expert.
Well this is a little awkward because you don't really know anything about that do you.
Maybe a little bit maybe you've heard it in the news but this is gonna be awkward because it's too late
you're already hired and people want you working right away so you entered the office and Oh there's
your boss right there.
This guy over here with the perfect hair that's Bruno he just got promoted and he's really excited to
make an impact with Keiko caught in their data division and he just hired you to lead some of their
initiatives.
Now he seems nice on the surface but I have a feeling that he's going to be a tough cookie to work with.
But you know what.
We'll get through this now if your memory is fuzzy of how you ended up here out Keiko Corp let's not
worry about that.
It's your first day on the job.
All you know is that you're the new machine learning and data science expert now because this is your
first day as you do.
You go out for lunch with your co-workers and luckily they don't ask you too many questions and they
seem to like you.
They seem to be nice.
But then during lunch comes the question hey we've heard about this machine learning thing and Bruno
said that you're the expert on the topic and we're excited to have you on the team.
But what is machine learning and you think to yourself oh boy what should I say here.
Well you know what guys I have to go back to work.
Don't have much time.
I'll explain it to you tomorrow.
So you run away still confused how you got here but luckily the day ends with you not revealing that
you know absolutely nothing and you have no idea how you just got hired.
You survived the first day but we have a problem right.
Tamar you have to go into work and you're gonna have to explain this to your colleagues hopefully can
survive throughout the next couple of weeks and let people know that you're not an imposter.
But what should we do here.
Well luckily for you you remember your old childhood friends their name Andre and Daniel.
Look how cute they were as a baby you call them up and you say hey somehow I landed this job in Silicon
Valley.
It's really well-paying.
But I have no idea what I'm talking about.
And luckily for you they know.
So they're going to help you throughout this journey to make sure that Bruno doesn't fire you and you
impress all your colleagues.
What we're going to do is each day at work you're gonna get some tasks and then you're gonna go back
home.
And Andre and Daniel are going to help you so that while you don't get fired here we are all of us at
home trying to decide how we're going to tackle this first problem.
That is what is machine learning.
We have to go into work tomorrow and explain it to our colleagues.
Let's get to it what is machine learning.
