A new type of thinking is essential, if mankind is to survive and move toward higher levels – Albert Einstein
What Einstein was referring to was the heart of creativity and optimism.
It is the singular place where great discoveries are made but it's also the place where a great deal of mistakes are made; more often than not.
Artificial Intelligence is no longer just a computer science issue. It is in the spaces and environments we occupy.
Our workplaces. Our Homes. Even in our pockets.
Hundreds of new learning algorithms are invented every year, but they’re all based on the same few basic ideas.
The idea that better data will ultimately yield better decisions.
Listen to all you really need to know to understand how AI is changing the world.
