Today I had the pleasure of interviewing Vin Vashishta. Vin works in applied machine learning and strategy. He builds and brings projects to market with ARR in the hundreds of millions. He has spent over 25 years in tech and the last 10 working in the data science and machine learning field. Since 2015, he has been frequently recognized as one of the fields thought leaders. In this episode we talk about what the future of data science looks like based on its history, how new data companies may have an advantage on older ones, and how you can create opportunities for yourself in this domain.
