Explicit Programming
f is coded by the programmer:
step by step instructions to map x into y
Machine Learning
programmer gives the machine examples on x and y:
the machine figures out f on its own
y = f(x)
Data flow
Data > Algo
Personal Data
- anagraphic information (sex, age, ecc.)
- who are your friends (social nets)
- where you go (GPS)
- what you like (movies, products)
- what you believe (political and religious views)
- what you buy, when and where (€€€)
- anything related to you
All of this helps automate services and make big money from big data
Who keeps the data?
*** context is king ***
A politically incorrect example of personal data protection

Personal data is a big deal
