Creators of Intelligence

By: Dr. Alex Antic

Overview of this book

A Gartner prediction in 2018 led to numerous articles stating that "85% of AI and machine learning projects fail to deliver.” Although it's unclear whether a mass extinction event occurred for AI implementations at the end of 2022, the question remains: how can I ensure that my project delivers value and doesn't become a statistic? The demand for data scientists has only grown since 2015, when they were dubbed the new “rock stars” of business. But how can you become a data science rock star? As a new senior data leader, how can you build and manage a productive team? And what is the path to becoming a chief data officer? Creators of Intelligence is a collection of in-depth, one-on-one interviews where Dr. Alex Antic, a recognized data science leader, explores the answers to these questions and more with some of the world's leading data science leaders and CDOs. Interviews with: Cortnie Abercrombie, Edward Santow, Kshira Saagar, Charles Martin, Petar Veličković, Kathleen Maley, Kirk Borne, Nikolaj Van Omme, Jason Tamara Widjaja, Jon Whittle, Althea Davis, Igor Halperin, Christina Stathopoulos, Angshuman Ghosh, Maria Milosavljevic, Dr. Meri Rosich, Dat Tran, and Stephane Doyen.

Chapter 1: Introducing the Creators of Intelligence

Angshuman Ghosh Leads the Way

Angshuman Ghosh is currently the VP of Data and Analytics at Sayurbox. He’s an experienced data science leader and has previously held leadership roles at Disney, Sony, Target, Grab, and Wipro.

I was keen to learn his views on what it takes to ensure success with data science projects, and how to build and manage a productive team.

I was also very interested to understand how he’s seen the industry change over his 15-year-plus career. Finally, I was looking for him to share his advice on developing a successful career.
