    Considering how stubborn established companies are with their business operations, introducing Machine Learning which will bring a difference in business environments and in how people work, is extremely difficult. Data Science, AI and Machine Learning are different concepts where Machine Learning helps the other two prosper. It is a means of programming an algorithm wherein businesses feed in examples of real data. According to Maxim Scherbak, the author of this article, the new task for ML-driven organizations is preparing data for Machine Learning models. This implies that it will make Business Analysts different rather than making them redundant. For successful implementation of Machine Learning algorithms (which are mostly viewed as black boxes) they need to be backed by thorough testing. Leaving rule based approaches behind, businesses need to learn to trust these algorithms to shine in the era of AI.

A/B testing (also known as Split testing or bucket testing) is mostly used by websites and mobile apps as an effective data based method to test and compare alternatives wherein one variant’s significantly better performance proves its efficacy and suggests its implementation. To run A/B test, after deciding the objective, the variants of the landing page are to be determined, where the variations should differ only in the element that is to be tested. The test, then needs to be performed to compare how the users respond to the variations followed by reviewing the results and making changes based on the results. Some of the benefits of A/B testing to mobile developers are higher conversion rates, analysis of engagement metrics, decision making based on data and statistics, ability to view app store experience from user’s point of view, better use of resources, insights into customer behavior, etc. Ultimately A/B testing makes businesses improve if they run multiple experiments and understand their users’ behavior.
