Will Synthetic Data Introduce Ethical Challenges for ML Engineers?

What Is Synthetic Data?

Machine learning frameworks are becoming widespread and easier to use, and there are ready-made machine learning models for most common tasks. As the model aspect of machine learning becomes commoditized, the focus of many machine learning initiatives shifts to the data.

Some in the industry estimate that over 70% of a data scientist’s time is spent collecting and handling data. Some algorithms require large amounts of data, and if a …
