In 2012 former Chief Data Scientist of the United States DJ Patil and Babson College Professor Thomson H. Davenport famously declared that the job of Data Scientist would be the “Sexiest job of the 21st Century.” While that may true, most Data Scientists spend the biggest chunk of their day on their least favorite part of the job: data cleansing and preparation.
That’s bad for both the business and the Data Science professional.
