I recently joined a series-A startup - Kheiron Medical - that is a pure-play machine learning (ML) company. Kheiron develops AI-based products that are used by radiologists to detect breast cancer in women. One of my motivations for making this move was to gain a better understanding and learn about ML companies and how they differ from traditional software development, which is my background. In this post, I will cover the differences between traditional software development and ML from a developers perspective. I will also cover the implications of these differences on the economics of ML companies and the interaction of ML and humans in follow-up articles.
