133: Winning the ML Prise

We talk with Philip Brown who started Prise in Jan 2022 using Elixir, Axon and Nx to apply machine learning to project management. He shares what he's accomplished as a one-person dev team and how Elixir enabled him to develop more rapidly. He shares how, with no ML academic training, he learned as he went and developed and trained his own models that classify and prioritize people's tasks spread across multiple systems! A fun and empowering discussion!
