I haven't upgraded this phone which
looks like a box
and if I throw it in a corner it's gonna
still work so I haven't upgraded this in
past four years but
one thing that I make sure I upgrade
is my knowledge my data science machine
learning knowledge. I spend usually
one one and one point five or two hours
of time
every day in reading something new. So in
this video I'm going to discuss
how i keep myself up to date with the
latest
happenings in the field of data science
and I'm going to share those resources
with you,
let's begin. Number one is attending
conferences
in the lockdown era many AI conferences
are free just recently
nvidia gtc was there the event was held
it was all free I attended it I learned
a lot
many leaders from you know AI field came
give a presentation I participated in
deep learning live workshop as well I
had interaction with so many amazing
folks
I learned so many things I attend pi
data conference as well every year so I
make sure I attend two to three
conferences every year
and I save money on not upgrading my
phone and I put that money in attending
conferences
so conferences is number one way that I
use personally
to keep myself up to date number two is
reading blogs
towards data science.com and analytics
with their.com are
my favorite blogs I read some articles
from that
and get to you know I try to get
myself up to date with the latest
happening
the third one is attending ML seminars
at my job
I work for Bloomberg which is a
financial data analytics company it's a
nice company
so many education ongoing trainings are
going on just today I was attending some
seminar
so if there is a seminar happening
within my company
I attend it I get a chance to interact
with those folks who are my colleagues
at work you know so if I have a question
I can connect with them later as well so
attending conferences at work is the
third way
the fourth way is twitter so twitter
I'm gonna post a link of Mr Elvis
who post nice things about machine
learning's latest things which are
happening in the field of data science I
follow
his twitter handle there are many other
influencers as well
and they have nice twitter feed you know
nice nice little text
they post every day and I
I get to learn a lot from these the next
one is LinkedIn I have a huge
connections
in my LinkedIn so i'm connected with
some of the you know leaders in the
field of data science so when they are
post something
I get to see that in my feed and I find
LinkedIn very useful
I don't want to spend two hours on
Facebook and Instagram
looking at you know what someone ate in
the dinner
or what kind of dress someone's wife is
wearing and I don't want to waste my
time
so for me facebook and instagram you
know
I don't spend too much time on the
platforms where I don't see much
productivity
versus LinkedIn is more for professional
people or serious things are going on
you get to learn a lot which helps in
your career
so LinkedIn post is another great way I
have a YouTube channel obviously
and I do interactions with many data
scientists for example
I think last two last week I had an
interview with a data scientist from two
sigma
I have interviewed data scientists from
amazon big companies when I'm doing this
live session I get to learn a lot so
I look forward for those live
interactions because
I myself learn a lot from these folks
so Youtube live interactions is another
great way
and I have a channel myself on youtube
but I
also follow other people's channel for
example Krishnak
Kenji data professor these are all my
friends
and I look at their channel as well and
I try to learn you know
knowledge wherever it comes from i'm
always hungry
for the knowledge and I want to just
receive the knowledge and
you know make a right use of it state
quest is another channel
for the statistics which I watch the
last way
is podcast data framed and super data
science
are two popular podcast you know
when I'm driving to work anyway you're
driving
and you know podcast is I feel is a best
way
to use the commute time agreed we are
living in a lockdown time period it's a
different time period but when the world
is unlocked
people will be spending hours and hours
and hours
in commuting so commuting some people
sleep yes sleeping is a good idea some
people just talk about random stuff
scroll their phone watch the news
whatever
not very productive so podcast is a
great way again i'm going to put
link of all this podcast the twitter
handle
all the links which I discussed in the
video description
below so make good use of your commute
time
you know I sometimes when i'm going to a
doctor and
my experience is like doctors make me
wait at least for one hour so if I'm
waiting waiting in their waiting area
I will have my headphone I will be
listening to podcast you know
so if I foresee that here's the place
I'm going
maybe I'll be spending some time waiting
for something not doing productive thing
then I keep my phone with me and I
listen to the podcast
so podcasts are another great way on
these two podcasts they invite
industry leaders they talk about the
latest and greatest things happening
in the field of data science so I have
shared all those resources I hope you
find this video useful if you did
share it with your friends who might
find it useful
as well thank you for watching
