Is Data Science Dying?
Рет қаралды 125,983
Күн бұрынIn this video I analyze if data science is dying. I address (1) is it trending downward? (2) Will it be automated and (3) Will there be jobs available?
I've gotten quite a few versions of similar questions: Is data science dying? Is the data science job market saturated? Is it too late to get into data science?
This is my (somewhat) thorough answer to these questions.
One of the main articles that kicked off this conversation: www.datasciencecentral.com/pr...
0:00 Intro
1:03 Is data science trending up or down?
2:36 Will data science be automated by AI?
5:31 Will the data science job market be oversaturated?

Hey I'm just 19 year old and I've started my journey with data science by pursuing batchelor in data science and programming.It really discourage me when someone says that data science jobs won't be that much in four-five years as it is now.I want to ask you that is it true or not.Did I make a wrong career choice?..it would take 3 years for me to complete the data science courses what is or is there a certainty that I will get a job?if not please advice me others career options as well (pursuing bsc pcm-maths as major and bsc in data science and programming)🙏

It's absolutely on the rise. AI can definitely automate things, but you need a human being to take what it outputs, confirm it isn't gibberish nonsense, and then explain to the business people what the data MEANS for the company.

I’m starting to learn data science with a mind towards still being employable in 2050. No matter whether the job of “data scientist” is around then, the skills learned in the job will be invaluable. Analysis, data architecture, machine learning, data visualization, Python and R, all of these skills will allow data scientists to be on the cutting edge of any new tools developed between then and now. And big data is getting bigger by the second. Barring some kind of AGI singularity, data science should continue on an upward trend. Thanks Ken for all the help in your videos so far, and for confirming my hunch that the field is going strong.

I really don't understand why people would ask if data science is a dying trend/industry/discipline etc. With more data becoming available and languages/tools like Python and R getting regular updates, there will always be a need for those skills and I personally don't see any of this becoming obsolete. I can see why data science as a title might render it declining trend but I wouldn't focus so much on what constitutes data science.

The sentiment is maybe coming from the difficulties to find your fist job if you are an aspiring data scientist.

That's really on point. People see advancements in tech and join the bandwagon of making predictions about the decline of human jobs.

In this field of ever growing competition, users would be looking for more personalized solutions and for that, we would require people.

When I was 12 years old, I wanted to learn HTML and JavaScript to build my own website that had guitars and penguins on it. All the so-called "smart" "adults" around me said that programming was a waste of time because all the programming jobs would get outsourced to other countries anyways and that programming was too hard for people who weren't good at math (like me). Not knowing anything, I decided to listen to them. Fast forward 4-14 years later, there are self-taught programmers who don't know much math and never went to college, who are now making high 6 figures and I missed that opportunity because I listened too much to other people when I was 12. Don't listen to people who aren't experts in the field you are exploring. Data science today is what HTML and web development was in 1997. It's not that new but it is still growing fast enough and there's plenty of room for more data scientists and computer programmers.

Automation is the dream people are buying into but like you showed earlier 57% of companies use data. Alot of companies who claim to be AI or data science driven dont even have a data governance or strategy in place. Data Jobs are here to stay; they are the backbone of the digital world.

As for AutoAI/AI GUI I been using one given by my company but the performance has only been surpar. I am using it more as a pipeline designer so less technical coworkers who are not comfortable with code can use it. On the other hand, fine tuning pretrained model has much better results and I think models trained by big tech companies will dominant in the next 5 years. I also agree with your point with data engineering as I have spent a lot of time in this area. So my 2 cents is Transfer learning tuning w/ preprocessing > AutoAI. My data will eventually output to some low code/no code applications, but I don't see how those application will replace software engineers/developers. I hope this is the same situation for us data scientist.

The lack of focus on data leadership and waste from hype, we're just not seeing a lot of feasible products and services that companies know what to do with or want to pay for. There's significant abrasion between the skills that are professed via Google and what companies actually need done. With that being said, there are a lot of newbies unwilling to make a commitment to the career. When they find out it's not just pushing buttons in Anaconda, they bail. Will data science grow or will companies adapt to what's available in the software and labor market when the hype dies? Or will they just keep throwing money into the unknown?

I'm thinking to have bootcamp and have zero coding experience. I like math but also I love searching, psychology and being creative . what your suggestion would be for me ? Ux designer or data scientist ? Ux designer excites me more, but I'm having fear how hard finding a job will be.Data scientist scares me to learn and personally have low interest but I wanna find job easily and kinda don't wanna feel my bachelor degree was a waste.

Honestly, if UX designer is more exciting to you, I think you should go for that. There are plenty of UI/UX boot camps & if that will make you happier in the long term I think it is worth pursuing. An alternative could be picking up some skills in Tableau or Power Bi and pursuing a data analyst role. There are elements of ux in dashboard creation and it wouldn't take doing a bootcamp or learning to code. I hope this helps!

In my job as a statistician in the healthcare field we build counterfactual models. There's no way this can be completely automated, at least not now. Constructing a causal diagram (or DAG) to investigate the relationships between variables requires subject area expertise and intuition of cause & effect. This is currently beyond AI's capabilities. Computers can measure correlation between three variables but don't know which variable is causing the other.

My concern here is the fact that other countries are offering data scientists for less than half the price... since the job can be done from anywhere, many people could literally die to have a salary of 1k a month and do the same we are doing and still live a comfortable life style.

My assumption - no analysis - was that there is a glut of data science boot camp graduates - plus the disconnect I've seen mentioned between people who study things like NLP and image recognition, which are not in demand in the workforce. Probably part of it for me is just that - i dont want to be a data scientist. I'm more interested in data profiling and analysis and modeling. I actually was turned down for a role I didnt realy want - because while the role said 'data analyst' they really wanted a junior data scientist - someone who WANTED to be a data scientist. I stumbled in to a great role, though, I think!

I am also considering working on applied fields like climatology or environmental economics since I come from an econ background, but ofc the algorithms are the same ( no DL there ofc ) ..

Data science is ever evolving and like he said, data driven decision making is here to stay. It's not a new concept to begin with. Some of the big changes that will happen in the field are ethics. The ethics of data collection, storage and analysis is under intense scrutiny. The laws will change and the tools we use will do too. Our tools will evolve and become more efficient. Even if there is automation,there will be need for people to manage automation. Like any another tech field, we will have to keep updating our skillset to stay relevant.

I think there's at least two possibilities: 1. The sentiment is coming from the fact that the rigor and knowledge required for data science/analysis is becoming better understood, and thus the lack of real expertise from most applicants is becoming apparent. 2. The real growth in the data science job opportunities requires experience that a lot of applicants don't have, yet. How many startups want a Sr. engineer to get things started? How many companies first getting into DS would want senior data scientists/engineers before investing in juniors?

I don't think it's gonna die anytime soon. Companies which uses data to grow their business have a significant upper hand on businesses who don't. So, even if the new entrepreneurs don't want to use data, they still will have to use it otherwise they are gonna get beaten easily by their competitor's who are using it. And the fact that people give away their data 24/7 , you need someone to analyse that, so data science is probably on the rise in my opinion, no doubt at all

Ken Jee hit the nail on the head perfectly. The general public, major business and especially the media have little to no understanding what data science and diversity of roles in this field. Since the field is much newer than others, how would anyone who communicates about value it or hold it in regard to any other white collar job? So when people want to move on to write about the next hot topic trend, or lack understanding of the subjects projected growth, its just easier to say it is dying.

Hi Ken, I'm 37 years old and from Banking industry. Studied accountancy and economics. I have been contemplating about doing data science for past a couple of years as i have never felt too confident about it. Data is definitely important but people doing masters/major in statistics will have upper hand to people who are doing data science course with no prior engineering background. Also, people who know various coding languages might again have upper hand. Rest you have in the job training. Please share your response.

Hey Akansha - While you may be behind in the coding, you are pretty far ahead of others with your knowledge of banking and accounting. These skills are extremely valuable depending on the role that you pursue. I think you would have a great shot at getting a data analyst or data scientist job within a similar domain with fairly basic technical skills. I would focus on trying to build the skillset that is relevant to the intersection of data and banking

No-code really is just a new buzzword that means what "democratization" used to mean. It lets unskilled people do what we do so we can learn the new hotness in our field. I used to be a web analyst. When Google Analytics started interpreting itself, I moved on to software skills and ML skills. No-code is good. As soon as we get comfortable with techniques, they are no longer cutting edge. So they're boring. No-code offloads that shit to our stakeholders so we can move on to the new cool stuff.

Data science is big but being able to interpret and provide insights from the data is where the money is. Lots of people can pull data and code using R, python etc..but if you can't explain how to use that results for predictive forecast or explaining how it either proves or disapproves your initial hypothesis then data analytics does not add any value.

Boy, no way this field is dying, the reason it might seem like this is because Data Science/Business IT degrees are being introduced at what feels like every University right now. There's the sentiment that IT degrees, especially in Business IT, are sort of the new MBA programmes, in that people who want to "get rich quickly" do them and flood the job market with what are considered short term CS skills that could end up being automated in the next 10-15 years. Now, I don't believe this to be true. I estimate Data Science is about to establish itself as its own proper (academic) field right now, which is why, suddenly, there's specific degress for it. Most people who work in DS jobs now did their degrees in math or CS, whereas the new generation will have proper DS degrees to go off. Kind of like how early programmers had math degrees, simply because Computer Science hadn't established itself as its own field yet.

As an accountant I can tell you the reason why you are not seeing any data scientists in small to midsize companies is because they cannot justify the head count. Sure Amazon can have a whole department for data science but a small business you might be the marketing/finance guy who is also analyzing the other data sets for the company. The field is not dying, but with tight budgets in small to midsize companies it is hard to justify hiring hiring someone who specializes in data science but cannot do any other core business function. But that will probably change as time goes on. Also, as companies grow then the need for data scientists will grow as well.
