He writes:

In this talk, I share elements of our product design process, share some amusing stories from deploying ML models to real-world environments, see how the real world can throw up surprising, unexpected and plain strange scenarios, and propose tools and techniques to help build ML models that really work.

While ML researchers continue to deliver new techniques and tools to improve the performance of ML-based systems, there’s often a gap between those developments and ML systems working in the real world: why is it often the case that when ML models are deployed in the real they do not work anywhere near as well as lab experiments suggest? What is it that leads to this disconnect?
