Welcome to our humble home!
This Christmas, you won’t be "home alone"! The Data-Centric AI Community is officially moving to a fun little place of the web — our brand new Discord server — and you’re invited to join us during the holidays.
What to expect from the server?
The DCAI Community is the home of all things data and is therefore designed with that in mind.
There are essentially 5 categories you may explore:
- 🚀 Let's Get Started: to get you started in the community, introduce yourself and invite friends;
- 💭 Data-Centric Topics: exclusively dedicated to data-centric discussions;
- ⭐️ Community Hub: to share ideas and personal projects, find inspiration and job opportunities, and foster partnerships;
- 🐼 Pandas Profiling and 🔐 YData Synthetic: dedicated to our open-source users and contributors.
Everything has its own place
Async communication is already hard, and more so when you have to skim through piles of vendor and promotional content to get truly helpful information and meaningful conversations.
We want our space to be exclusively dedicated the boost genuine interests: that’s what a community is for.
DCAI has a special "#promote" channel, but that’s it. If you are truly invested on having people to provide feedback and collaborate you can post your work in the discussion forums or look for partners and colleagues in "#partnerships".
Alternatively, if you found DCAI through pandas-profiling or ydata-synthetic you can find support for your troubleshooting and provide feedback on interesting features!
So there you have it, everything has its own place, even events! No need to have links scattered through "random" or "general" channels. Just add your event to the community! It will automatically synchronise with your time zone, so that everyone is always up-to-date.
Find your tribe and engage in genuine conversations
Similarly to machine learning algorithms, each of us can belong to one or several tribes, and a community is a place where we can connect with like-minded fellas.
When entering the DCAI Community, you can join yours by simply reacting to their respective emojis: a moderator will then assign you to the desired role.
Then, while navigating the community, you can get in touch with your tribe when asking a particular question or sharing an update. Just be careful not to abuse this permission (e.g., using it for promotional content) or it may be revoked!
How to join
Joining the community is easy-peasy: just click this link. If you are already a Discord user, the link should take you directly to our server.
If you run into any troubles with “Invalid Invite”, try opening the link in a private browser window, or simply add the server manually and paste the invite link: https://discord.gg/mw7xjJ7b7s
If you don’t have a Discord account yet, you’ll need to create one, and then join the server using the invite link: https://discord.gg/mw7xjJ7b7s
See you soon!
This marks a new beginning for the Data-Centric AI Community!
We're preparing a year full of exciting initiatives, where each month will be dedicated to a particular data quality issue — what it is, where we can encounter it "in the wild", how it affects data science applications, and of course... how it may be diagnosed and mitigated!
So if you haven't yet, stay tuned to our newsletter: we promise to spill all The Gaussip.
We hope you can join us and share your journey!👾
