ICYMI: Gartner released its Magic Quadrant report on data science and machine learning platforms, which analyzes the top 20 companies in the space. Their respective platforms help data scientists obtain data, build models, and operationalize machine learning.

Key takeaways:

• While AI remains “overhyped," Gartner says the pandemic has made investments in data science/ML more practical.
• It recommends that companies develop new applications that are more visible and have higher business value.
• The most valuable differentiators in the space include responsible AI, transparency, and tackling biases in AI models. Every company it reviewed is progressing in these areas, it noted.
• Google and Amazon are now considered competitors to Microsoft for ML/data science capabilities in the cloud. IBM, MathWorks, and SAS continue to reign.
• It's the first time Alibaba Cloud, Cloudera, and Samsung DDS were included in the Magic Quadrant. IBM’s Watson Studio was listed as a leader in the report, up from being a "challenger" in 2020.
• In 2019, the data science/machine learning market grew 17.5% and generated revenues of $4B.
