NDC Conferences: "Would YOU Survive the Titanic?", with ML and .NET - Simon Painter - NDC Copenhagen 2025

Simon Painter’s NDC Copenhagen 2025 talk dives into ML.NET—Microsoft’s easy-to-use SDK for adding machine learning to your .NET apps—and shows how to build a Titanic survival predictor using C#, Visual Studio, and Kaggle’s Titanic dataset.

He busts the myth that ML only belongs in Python, demonstrating that you can train high-quality models right in Visual Studio with just a few clicks. And yes, he warns, there are icebergs ahead…

Great talk! It’s cool to see ML.NET being used to build a Titanic survival predictor—proves you don’t need Python for machine learning. Using Visual Studio with C# makes it really accessible for .NET developers, and the iceberg analogy is a fun touch.
