Quotes

  • "We can use advanced machine learning in a whole bunch of new ways to optimize the performance using a combination of physics, data, and artificial intelligence." (13:23 | Jeremy Palmer)
  • "We're still a long way away from capturing the potential that exists in our field. There's still too much complexity and a heavy reliance on deep experts to really reap the benefits of what machine learning or AI can do." (25:40 | Jeremy Palmer)
  • "The future belongs to people who are not just deep experts in the technology but have also got the ability to think about how to apply that technology in the real world. Generalized problem-solving around highly important problems is as useful a skill as understanding AI in any kind of detail." (31:11 | Jeremy Palmer)
