These days, job titles like data scientist, machine learning engineer, and Ai Engineer are everywhere — and if you were anything like me, it can be hard to understand what each of them actually does if you are not working within the field.
And then there are titles that sound even more confusing — like quantum blockchain LLM robotic…

Random Forest — A Powerful Tool for Anyone Working With Data
What is Random Forest?
Have you ever wished you…
When I built a GPT-powered fashion assistant, I expected runway looks—not memory loss, hallucinations, or semantic déjà vu. But what unfolded became a lesson in how prompting really works—and why LLMs are more like wild animals than tools.
This article builds on my previous article on TDS, where I introduced Glitter as a proof-of-concept GPT…
Regression Discontinuity Design: How It Works and When to Use It
You’re an avid data scientist and experimenter. You know that randomisation is the summit of Mount Evidence Credibility, and you also know that when you can’t randomise, you resort to observational data and Causal Inference techniques. At your disposal are various methods for spinning…
Introduction
The Artificial Intelligence industry is moving fast. It is impressive and many times overwhelming.
I have been studying, learning, and building my foundations in this area of Data Science because I believe that the future of Data Science is strongly correlated with the development of Generative AI.
It was just the other day when…
You might be wondering whether GenAI is just hype or external noise. I also thought this was hype, and I could sit this one out until the dust cleared. Oh, boy, was I wrong. GenAI has real-world applications. It also generates revenue for companies, so we expect companies to invest heavily in research. Every time…
How many times have you had a messy Jupyter Notebook filled with copy-pasted code just to re-use some data wrangling logic? Whether you do it for passion or for work, if you code a lot, then you’ve probably answered something like “way too many”.
You’re not alone.
Maybe you tried to share data with colleagues…
In regression models, the independent variables must be not or only slightly dependent on each other, i.e. that they are not correlated. However, if such a dependency exists, this is referred to as Multicollinearity and leads to unstable models and results that are difficult to interpret. The variance inflation factor is a decisive metric for…
Recently, Sesame AI published a demo of their latest Speech-to-Speech model. A conversational AI agent who is really good at speaking, they provide relevant answers, they speak with expressions, and honestly, they are just very fun and interactive to play with.
Note that a technical paper is not out yet, but they do have a…
According to various sources, the average salary for Coding jobs is ~£47.5k in the UK, which is ~35% higher than the median salary of about £35k.
So, coding is a very valuable skill that will earn you more money, not to mention it’s really fun.
I have been coding professionally now for 4 years, working…
