Hackathon: Machine Learning
Gartner announced they were going to host a company-wide hackathon to be held in May of 2019. I proposed a machine learning proof-of-concept to address the low quality of the pros and cons featured on our new reviews page. While leading the project, I thought it was important that everyone be able to pursue whatever approach they saw fit to learn the skills they desired to learn.
In the end, we all mostly got results of one kind or another. We learned a few things along the way. And everyone lost to the team we all knew we would lose to. We went on to implement our solution on the live site.
