1. The document discusses how data science can provide value to business managers by focusing on creating value from data without requiring coding skills.
2. It explains that increased data availability and better algorithms, like deep learning, have enabled major advances in data science.
3. While traditionally only data-centric industries benefited from data science, the document argues that all companies now have untapped potential to innovate and gain competitive advantages through the use of data science.

Deep learning: a significant breakthrough
“The model has 1 billion connections, the dataset
has 10 million 200x200 pixel images downloaded
from the Internet. We train this network […]with
1,000 machines (16,000 cores) for three days.”

Deep learning: a significant breakthrough
Deep neural nets enable the
automated extraction of useful
features - beyond any level we
previously achieved
before after
We used to hand-craft
features that should be
recognised to identify
objects

but algorithmic advances certainly gave a great
push to data science
