Business Machine Learning The Founder’s Guide to Machine Learning: Choosing the Right Service for Your Business May 27, 2015 / October 9, 2025 by adamdev If you’ve been following our Founder’s Guide to Machine Learning series, you’ll know that machine learning has been around for decades, but commercial applications have only emerged recently — largely because of the high barriers to entry involved with building a machine learning model from scratch. In an effort to make the technology more accessible […] Read more Ā»
Business Machine Learning The Founder’s Guide to Machine Learning: Why You Shouldn’t Build Your Own Models May 5, 2015 / October 9, 2025 by adamdev Machine learning may be the hot new thing, but it’s still a mystery to most people. This isn’t surprising, since the field is complex and requires a high degree of expertise. In Part 1 of The Founder’s Intro to Machine Learning, we explained that machine learning involves the use of computer algorithms and mathematical models […] Read more Ā»
Business Machine Learning The Founder’s Guide to Machine Learning: An Introduction April 21, 2015 / October 9, 2025 by adamdev You may have heard the term “machine learning” being thrown around, but what exactly does it mean? It’s a broad term referring to a class of computer algorithms that allow machines to perform general tasks, such as identifying human faces in photos. These algorithms build mathematical models from an initial dataset (known as a training […] Read more Ā»
Developers Featured Writers Machine Learning Opinion Piece Developing for Development: Machine Learning for the Greater Good April 7, 2015 / October 9, 2025 by adamdev When we contemplate machine learning, we might think of our phone companions Siri or Cortana, hot fitness items on the market now that adjust to our routines and abilities, or about big business and data science. Seldom does our picture of “cutting-edge” involve places that are not industrialized. But the “developing” world is a rich […] Read more Ā»
