293: True Personalization Through Reinforcement Learning

In this episode of the SuperDataScience Podcast, I chat with Data Scientist, Peyman Hesami. You will find out what reinforcement learning is and how it works on an intuitive level. You will hear about the differences between reinforcement learning versus classification, or other supervised learning methods, and how it's used for personalization specifically. You will learn about six distinct advantages of reinforcement learning, what role reinforcement learning is going to play in the future of machine learning and why. Also, you will find out how and why Peyman made a career transition to work for a startup, how he's using reinforcement learning, and what is the biggest mistake he has made with reinforcement learning.
