My in-depth 70 page tutorial on Machine Learning/Deep Learning - https://goo.gl/mube7u

I recently gave this lecture on machine learning at Harvard Business School. I begin by explaining the differences between the terms AI, Machine Learning and Deep Learning. Then, I speak about the need for deep learning - explaining factors that make solving problems in computer vision and natural language processing hard. Finally, I present various problems that researchers in machine learning work on, and the state of the art performances that can currently be achieved on these.

The primary motive here was to enable managers to develop an intuition for how hard some problems would be translate into product. For example, if a new AI product requires object detection, or sentiment analysis, a manager would be able to better approach the problem if they knew how hard the technical problem is to solve!

Do you have a better quality recording, or a link to the presentation? If the presentation is very useful, could you perhaps record an audio over with the presentation and put it online?

I feel like a google search of each topic would be more efficient. Listening to a 35 minute presentation with bad audio/video quality is a slow way to learn this type of stuff...

Saving the video link to watch later.

I would like to see a compilation of ML applications that can be used in traditional companies. (e.g. retail, manufacturing, distribution, etc)

I like the idea of the talk, but the quality of the video makes it a bit useless. Does anybody know a similar scoped presentstion?

Google has a lot of great generalist content on ML:

audio is not good at the beginning and at the middle. Not usable imo.

Here's some good overview type articles on ML: https://semiengineering.com/the-great-machine-learning-race/ https://semiengineering.com/machine-learnings-popularity-gro...
