Dear readers,

I hope you’re all doing great! So, I’d like to commemorate the 50th issue of the digest to a few things that are important to me :)

#1

This Sunday, July 24, I’ll be running a half-marathon on The San Francisco Marathon. In this race, I am participating in a charity fundraising for the KOLO fund that helps the Ukrainian army. I invite everyone to join, to help me raise donations. You can donate any sum you want, and you can also subscribe.

#2

The Data Phoenix is excited to announce the launch of our yearly survey — Machine Learning & Data Science Survey 2022 —  among those who’re engaged in Machine Learning, Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, Data Science, and other aspects of Artificial Intelligence.

I invite all our readers to answer some questions about your expertise, skills, and toolsets. You’ll help us figure out what’s going on in the industry in 2022. Of course, we’ll share the results later!

Слава Україні!

Best regards,
Dmitry Spodarets
Chief Editor of Data Phoenix
