99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So data and analytics are dramatically
changing our everyday lives.

99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Not just online,

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
not just in some distance future,

99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but in the physical world

99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and in very real and tangible ways.

99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I spent the last 11 years
of my life as a geek at MIT

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
working in big data labs

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that seek to use data science
to study the physical world

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and try to solve society's great problems.

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The field of big data seeks to analyze
massive pools of data

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
using computational tools
to find patterns and trends.
