Book Wrap Up
This book has provided you with my personal views on how to process information using machine learning, natural language processing, and various data store technologies. My hope is that at least some of my ideas for building software systems has been of use to you and given you ideas that you can use when you design and build your applications.
My philosophy in general for building systems that solve real problems in the world includes the following system:
- Learn new technologies as a background exercise to “keep a full toolbelt.” This is especially important now that technology is changing rapidly and often new technologies make it easier to implement new functionality. A major reason that I wrote this book is to introduce you to some of the technology that I have found to be most useful.
- Make sure you solve the right problems. Build systems that have an impact on your company or organization, and on the world in general by building things that you think will have the greatest positive impact.
