🌉 #OpenSource software is not a tiny piece of stick upstream in the dependency chain, but rather a huge chunk of foundational and yet invisible infrastructure, representing $8.8 trillion of value present in 96% of all codebases. So, flip it upside down and see what this means...

Looking forward to speaking on the #OpenSourceAI panel at the sold out EU Open Source Policy Summit by @openforumeurope.org in two weeks. Rather than discussing the definition, we’ll focus on how #openness contributes to European competitiveness—or perhaps, how it might help Europe catch up.

Happy new year 45^2

Rather than predictions, here are my professional wishes for 2025—shaped by a year of profound learning, building mission-driven @probabl.ai and data science commons with and around @scikit-learn.org, and engaging with brilliant minds, both enthusiastic and concerned about AI: #openness

I am thrilled to announce that I passed the Scikit-learn Associate Practitioner Certification! Passing the test was a reminder of how rich scikit-learn is and how fascinating data science can be! This gives me perspective on what we ought to do with skore. www.credly.com/badges/7cc82...

Bringing structure and recommended practices to Machine Learning projects can be challenging. Even experienced data scientists struggle with it. That's why we built skore – your companion when modeling with scikit-learn. Check it out and let us know what you think! github.com/probabl-ai/s...

AI hype is making AI researchers forget painfully learned lessons core to the field. There's an emerging cope that progress in capabilities isn't slowing down—it's just invisible as benchmarks are saturated; vibe checks are useless because models are now superhuman so we can't perceive improvement.

🚨 I am now convinced that "the future belongs to those who own their data, their data science, their machine learning, and therefore their artificial intelligence". 📋 This concluding statement was exposed during my "Eyes Wide Open + AIs Wide Open" keynote this morning at the GenerationAI conf.
