Big Data & Analytics Gone Bad

Nice job from folks at Radio Free for a series on HPC. This episode focused on Big Data & Analytics. In particular, how Big Data & Analytics could go bad.

In the video, the guys will talk about a couple of examples of when over-reliance on analytics leads to bad outcomes. The first deals with some high school kids who were allegedly found to be cheating by a plagiarism software program and the second looks at how a major bank may have lost up to $9 billion due to lack of proper controls and blind faith in existing analytic systems.
