Demystifying Data Science | Mr.Asitang Mishra | TEDxOakLawn

In this talk Mr.Asitang Mishra relates his experiences as a Data Scientist at the world famous NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). With his wit, intellect, and didactic aphorisms, Asitang truly paints a picture on what it means to be the modern day data science superhero. Facing some of the world's most complex engineering challenges in the space science frontier, Asitang sheds incredible light on how combining open source technology with multi-disciplinary collaboration at NASA, paves the way for some of humanity's most ingenious solutions. He pokes fun at and tries to explain the various quirks of this new, fast growing and at times vague field of data science and engineering in simple and easy to digest terms. As a data scientist at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Asitang is paving the path to some of the space world's most complex challenges with wit, innovation, charm, and true intellect. In his free time, he loves talking technology and how its truly helping put us one step closer to exploring the unknown frontier: Space This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

As a data scientist myself, I agree that anyone can become a data scientist. It definitely takes a significant amount of time and effort though. I have multiple videos about how to get into the field on my channel for those who are interested!

'anyone can be a data scientist' - that's the gist of this lecture.....What it requires is a combo of math stats n computer science skills topped u with communication and management soft skills.....Data is the new thing from which physicists, engineers, social scientists can draw n infer conclusions based on past history or some kind of logic.......And this is the best time ever for fast processing of loads of data........Right time to be data scientist! You can work in any domain! Good introductory talk👍

Visiting this presentation from Google Data Analytics Program on Coursera. I love this presentation. Very insightful.

You don't need a computer science, data science or statistics degree to become a data scientist.

This was very precise and at the same time a very broad view at this field. Thank you sir.

Is it still worth it to pursue Data Science if it will be automated in the future? How far off is the full automation of the field?

[@not_So_Random-Dude]

yup. that's on my mind too.

[@inaammuaz2284]

I’ll really recommend you to pursue it. It can be applied in any industries. Even if it’s going to be automated there needs to be a human touch

Does LLM replaced Data Analysis? plz.. answer me anyone...

[@himanimurti9007]

I have done msc in pure mathematics I have no experience in programming languages. Can I become data scientist?

[@Abhishekb936]

Yes you can. Start slow, learn excel, SQL to begin with. Understand data and what people would like to see from it. You can learn Programming for sure

[@johnwig285]

Bro ure more than qualified 😂😂😂 Programming is easy for math students like u definitely. Ull be able to transition to Data Science smoothly where some aspects require A level to college level maths.

[@leanvillan4941]

In theoretical terms it's easier to learn programming than pure mathematics. Programming consists of learning the algorithms, memorizing the syntax and practicing until you get into the habit of creating and solving problems with increasing efficiency. If you studied pure mathematics, you have the ability.

'At some point We are going to automate ourselves and go out of business'
So he doesn't know about the company DataRobot?

[@caspershyr8059]

Vishal Jagtap datarobot only automates the modelling of specific ml problems.
Most DS problems involve other analytical pipelines that still require actual data scientists.
For example, embedding a ml model within an optimization scheduling algorithm.

Can a person with biology background with programming language knowledge be a data scientist?

[@anujlahoty8022]

Without a doubt he/she can be a data scientist.

You can also go for bioinformatics..rt?

Biology is the most common degree data scientists today hold. Biologists tend to be perfect for DS work: research, cleaning data, feature engineering, problem solving, and so on.
