SUMMARY

FunCorp’s iFunny app was one of the top 10 most popular entertainment apps in the US. It is still a very popular app that has a ton of downloads and just memes. They need a recommendation system on top of that. Memes are super tricky because they're user-generated and they evolve very quickly. They're going to live and die by the Recommender System in that product.

It's incredible to see FunCorp's maturity. Gleb breaks down the feature store they created and the velocity they have to be able to create a whole new pipeline in a new model and put it into production after only a month!
