Episode Followup – Dennis Faucher Starting Machine Learning

D3ennis Faucher (https://twitter.com/DennisFaucher) gave an absolute gem of a presentation. He is encouraging everyone to get started in ML in this session, where he discusses basic concepts and then gets into how we can all get started. He gave us all the links and was even nice enough to organize them through slides:

Here is a link to my PPT if anyone in the audience wants a copy. Here are also all the URLs in my deck that can be added to the YT description.
