Tom Golway
“An issue with current data science methodologies is that the impact of contextual awareness is underestimated since the problem is much more complex. At times we incorrectly equate correlation with causation based on incomplete data or lack of understanding sensitive dependencies between data sets. - Tom Golway”
Tom Golway

“Businesses should free themselves from dogma, especially when leveraging data to build a business. No one got very far living out other people’s thinking.”
Damian Mingle
