Key Takeaway: Data Science Field is Evolving
One of the key takeaways from Kirsten Lum's time at Amazon and Expedia is that the data science field is constantly evolving, and even large companies struggle to navigate it effectively. This means that whether you are entering the data field or using data as a business owner or user, it is important to understand that the field is complex and lacks well-established best practices. It also means that imposter syndrome is not necessary, as even large companies are still discovering and refining their data frameworks.
