What's bigger than #chatgpt 4 for #datascientist 's and #machinelearningengineer 's working in #structureddata ? I'd say its #xgboost 2.0! Now out with 2.0.2 (I never trust a .0 release 😉 ). #llm get all the #aihype these days, but gradient boosting is the revolutionary tech that some say "killed data science" by making it too easy! 2.0 Includes enhancments like #gpu support and learning to rank, not to mention supporting the latest pandas. https://github.com/dmlc/xgboost/releases

Researchers Weaponize Machine Learning Models With Ransomware.
* Trained ML models can be infected with malicious payloads. When ML developers or MLops platform loads the model, it can infect the machine with malware like #ransomware.
"These models are also downloaded to various machine-learning ops platforms, which can be pretty scary because they can have access to Amazon S3 buckets and steal training data"
Also hackers can use it for mining cryptocurrencies since most of the machine learning developers machine will have GPU

#introduction
A long time ago I was an academic - working in #SoftCondensedMatter #BiologicalPhysics After a spell as an industrial research scientist at #unilever I became a #DataScientist (by sleight of hand). I do a lot of things with #Python. I have a blog which these days is mainly #BookReviews including a fair amount of #histsci. I live in #Chester with Dr Mrs H, two #cats and a 11 year old son. Possibly addicted to #Fortnite and #HorizonForbiddenWest. https://www.ianhopkinson.org.uk
You can find my shit-posting account. This is my more slice of life, interesting stuff, etc account. My more academic stuff goes on my scholar account.

I don't come from a "traditional" background for Data Science as my undergrad degree was an MA in #Geography.
Currently, I'm looking for my first role as a #DataScientist and in my spare time I'm brushing up on skills such as #SQL.
I'm also working to remaster my MA dissertation in python where I am fixing mistakes from the original project. I'm also hoping to explore some of the methods I considered but was unable to use from the first time around.
I just did an #introduction a few days ago, but I've moved servers, so let's try one more time, for the cheap seats in the back!
I'm currently a data analyst/product #DataScientist working with free-to-play #VideoGames, and living in #Halifax, #NovaScotia, #Canada. I've done a lot of work on #Analytics design, with a focus on ensuring player telemetry events are sensibly cross-referenceable, and looking for relationships between engagement with different game features and business outcomes.
Business teams in freemium games love looking for magic buttons.
I primarily use #SQL, #Pandas, #Statsmodels, and #SKLearn on #Databricks (#Python), and #JuliaLang (DataFrames.jl, GLM.jl, Gadfly.jl, and Makie.jl, etc) for smaller, locally run projects. My interests lie in expanding the library of ML models I have in my back pocket for performing inference based knowledge generation. I'm not super keen on automating products with quasi-black-boxes for the sake of revenue optimization. If I'm not personally learning something new about people through my work, I don't usually see the value in it.
I did my BSc in #Physics and my MSc in #Astronomy, and, though I had dreams of progressing further down that pipeline, life kind of got in the way. Between the two degrees, I worked at the #Edmonton #Planetarium for four years as a presenter/operator (should out to the #ZeidlerDome at #TWoSE!).
I'm a life-long #Trekie, thanks to my mother. I grew up with #TNG and #DS9, and watched the first 5 seasons of #VOY before leaving home for university. Currently very bullish on #SNW and #LDS.
I'm also a lifelong #Baseball fan (#BlueJays and #Expos), and actively play rec #Softball.
About a year ago, I purchased my first lens-swappable digital #camera, and have been figuring out #Photography ever since. Most of my posts have focused on sharing my pictures, though I've recently decided to start a dedicated account for that on a #PixelFed server, for the sake of searchability.
My wife is currently studying political sociology, and I find her work fascinating. She's not currently on the Fediverse, but maybe one of these days.
This has really lost all sense of narrative flow, hasn't it? Oops!
