Machine learning is often presented as a black box, but it can be used to create an even deeper understanding of your data. The generality of Machine Learning means this "ML analytics" can be used on all kinds of datasets and link user preference to the performance of technical systems. And with these insights in hand regular conversations on system development, tradeoffs and performance can now be up qualified and better linked to outcomes. Do you want to learn more about machine learning, and how it can be used as a tool? Do you have questions such as: What is ML and can it help to understand data? How can machine learning be used as a tool? How does machine learning help software development?
