Vin Vashishta MLOps Podcast #176

You know it’s going to be a good episode when the guest is someone quoted on your merch.

It was great to welcome back Vin “Kubernetes is a gateway drug” Vashishta.

In this episode, we talked about many things, but for Vin, it all came back to one thing: strategy.

Now, if you’re anything like me, that set alarm bells ringing.

Don’t worry.

The cynic in me thought the same. So I grilled him on it.

He talked me through good strategy and strategy execution – all without a PowerPoint!

This raised the need for new job roles like technical or AI strategists, how they integrate into existing teams and the shift in mindset needed.

And strategy isn’t just for organizations. One of the biggest take-aways for me was for individuals and how to use your expertise to make the entire team more capable, and how that benefits you.

Grab your neon t-shirt, put on your baggy denim overalls, and crank up the Deee-Lite - we’re going back to 1990.

AI was a budding field.

'Deep Learning' was just taking its first steps.

And I was just 3 years old.

This post by Douglas Blank gives a glimpse into this transformative era, but focuses mostly on AI, not me.

Rather than write about how I used my Playskool Cassette Recorder to do early podcasts, he writes about:

  • visualization techniques that are still relevant today,
  • dimensionality reduction techniques,
  • the evolution of terminology.

Click the link to step back in time and see how it shaped today.
