  • If AI is Ill - We Need To Know What It Ate

    You are what you eat. AI engines are what data they consume. If AI needs to be “cured” or wants to be “cured,” it starts by admitting what it has consumed. Yet we hear that the training data for an AI vendor is proprietary. Well, let us examine this.

    First-Mover is not automatically a win. Each industry and technology need to be looked at through two dimensions – Market Evolution Speed and Technology Evolution Speed.
