Scholarship
The scholarship is now closed. A huge thanks to everyone for participating! Amazon suggests what you should buy; Netflix suggests what you should watch; Google suggests what you should search; Facebook suggests who you should connect with. Recommendation algorithms are everywhere, and they are based on your online behavior. These algorithms are advancing at head-spinning speeds as more and more data is being collected. They save us time and make sure we see what interests us, but are they closing our minds to other experiences? Let’s discuss in essay format. Welcome to 365 Data Science 2019 scholarship competition!
