To solve a complex problem, should we ask a single genius or tap into our networks? It's a question that's answered by Matthew Syed in his book Rebel Ideas: The power of diverse thinking.
In this episode, Nahdia, Owen, Ross G and Gemma gather to contemplate the book.
We discuss:
what rebel ideas are diversity and its benefits (and what we lose when we don't have it) practical ways to harness collective intelligence. Show notes
In WILTW, Owen shared his finding of an animated introduction to machine learning. You can experience this visual explanation here: http://www.r2d3.us/visual-intro-to-machine-learning-part-1/
