Diffbot State of Machine Learning Report
- 1. Diffbot State of Machine Learning Report - 2018
- 2. Using the Diffbot Knowledge Graph*, we identified 720,325 people skilled in Machine Learning across the globe. This makes up 0.009% of the global population *The Diffbot Knowledge Graph is a fully autonomous, AI-curated and structured database of all of the public knowledge on the Web: more than 1 trillion facts and 10 billion entities. This represents a repository of knowledge that is significantly larger than the Google Knowledge Graph, and growing every day.
- 3. Global Distribution of Machine Learning Talent is heavily centered in the US Note: China is likely significantly underrepresented in this count, potentially due to the closed nature of their Internet (Diffbot Knowledge Graph is based on public information) ● 221,592 workers skilled in ML reside in the US ● 30.8% of global talent pool ● More talent than the rest of the top 10 combined
