Consulting-focused practical report on how projects actually run: Python, pandas and scikit-learn drive quick exploration, Jupyter hosts demos, models must match client goals. A booth prototype asks 22 taste questions from 113 responses, trains XGBoost for feature importance then collapses to a simple decision tree that dynamically asks fewer questions and surprisingly predicts hazelnut from a dislike of black; emphasizes assembling the right stakeholders, iterative workshops, and that simple models often win.
