This lecture will cover the evaluation framework of a new LLM-powered conversational reporting feature in Waze. The conversational reporting feature allows users to report traffic incidents (such as crashes, hazards and more) safely while driving, in natural language. The model is designed to understand the type of traffic report users want to make, ask further required clarifications, and submit it accordingly.
Reut is a data science leader with a 15 year track record of building and scaling data-driven products.
During the last 3.5 years, Reut has led the DS efforts around several domains at Waze including driver reports, city partner data collection, insights surfacing, onboarding, search, monetization, and more, allowing safe rollouts of dozens of new features and ML based tools and capabilities.
Previously, as a director of data science at Natural Intelligence, Reut spearheaded the transition from manual marketing operations to ML-based systems, developing the data infrastructure and leading the development of machine learning-powered marketing optimization products. These initiatives have resulted in a 10% lift in gross profit on a $30M annual marketing budget.
Prior to this, Reut was a data scientist at Agoda, where she owned algorithmic components of a marketing system and implemented new features in a big-data production environment.
Reut holds an MS in data science from the University of Chicago and a BSc in industrial engineering and management (summa cum laude) from Ben-Gurion University.
