Jesse, welcome to "The Data Stack Show." We are super thrilled to talk with you today. >> Yeah, great to be here. Thanks so much for having me on. >> All right. You have a really long interesting history, which we're going to dig into in a minute, but give us the abbreviated version. >> A pretty good version. Yes, started about his PhD looking at very small things, spent about six years in academia, then decided that this wasn't for me, moved into women's fashion doing data science at Stitch Fix, segue into Alexa and Amazon, robotics and search and then founding Marco, which brings me here today. >> Awesome. Time to discuss. All right. Yeah. Welcome on, Jesse. So we talked a little bit before the show about the e-commerce application for search, some on the history of search, and why it's so complicated and messy right now. So what are some topics you're interested in covering? >> Yeah, really started to talk about machine learning and search, vector search, some of the new capabilities that really unlocks, and really forward-looking as well, because I think that we're going to see a large evolution in the way that we search. We've already seen some of that with things like chat JPT and these kind of question and answering methods. So forward-looking, I think it's really exciting. >> Yeah, awesome. All right. Shall we do it? Let's do it. >> All right. That's a wrap for the people. The full-length episode will drop Wednesday morning. Subscribe now so you don't miss it. [MUSIC]
