Building and Managing High-Quality Datasets for Machine Learning | Jason Liang, SuperAnnotate


Listen Later

One of the stand-out characteristics of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is its ability to learn, for better or for worse. It’s this ongoing effort that distinguishes AI from static, code-dependent software. It’s also precisely this ability that makes high-quality annotated data a crucial element in training representative, successful, and bias-free AI models.

 

In this episode, we sit down with Jason Liang, VP of Business Development and Co-founder of SuperAnnotate. This AI lifecycle platform provides annotation services and training data for machine learning models. With over a decade of experience in finance, corporate, and tech startups, Jason brings a unique perspective to the conversation. We start by exploring Jason's background, including his experience at Lehman Brothers and his time in the tech world at SAP's mobile division. From there, we dive into the SuperAnnotate platform and how it helps companies build high-quality datasets for machine learning. Jason explains how SuperAnnotate uses professionally managed annotation teams instead of crowdsourcing to ensure high data quality.
