H2O's Driverless AI: An AI that creates AI

Through my kaggle journey to the top spot, I have noticed that many of the things I do as a data scientist can be automated. In fact automation is critical to achieve good scores and promote accountability, ensuring that common pitfalls in the modelling process are prevented. Through automation, data science can be democratized and reach a bigger audience.

 

In this talk I will share our approach on automating machine learning using H2O’s Driverless AI:

Driverless AI employs the techniques of expert data scientists in an easy-to-use application that helps scale data science efforts. Driverless AI empowers data scientists to work on projects faster using automation and state-of-the-art computing power from GPUs to accomplish tasks in minutes that used to take months.
