// Abstract
We take a deep dive into the creation of Spark, with the creator himself – Matei Zaharia, Chief Technologist at Databricks. This episode also explores the development of Databricks' other open source ML Flow and the concept of /"lake house ML/". As a special treat, Matei told us about the details of the /"DSP/" (Demonstrate Search Predict) project, which aims to enable the creation of applications by combining LLMs and other text feedback systems.
// About the guest:
Matei has the unique advantage of being able to see different perspectives, having worked in both academia and industry. He listens carefully to people's challenges and enthusiasm for ML and uses them to come up with new ideas. As part of Databricks, Matei also has the benefit of applying ML to Databricks' own internal practices. He constantly asks the question: “What is the best way to do this?” / »
