Intelligent enterprises today are being shaped by two distinct forces. The first is the growing power of computers and big data, which provide the foundation for operations research, forecasting models, and artificial intelligence (AI). The second is our growing understanding of human judgment, reasoning, and choice. Decades of research has yielded deep insights into what […]

Companies and individuals are notoriously inept at judging the likelihood of uncertain events, as studies show all too well. Getting judgments wrong, of course, can have serious consequences. Steve Ballmer’s prognostication in 2007 that “there’s no chance that the iPhone is going to get any significant market share” left Microsoft with no room to consider […]

Imaging in agriculture is where machine learning will be necessary to execute on a chip.  Using triangulation as an example for generating point cloud data at high resolution would require a tremendous amount of computation. Supercomputers based on GPU might help but that won’t make it into the field devices, therefore, I am predicting that […]

In a blog post about the project, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that, “We hope AutoML will take an ability that a few Ph.D.s have today and will make it possible in three to five years for hundreds of thousands of developers to design new neural nets for their particular needs.” Source: Google Reveals Automatic […]

Machine learning, deep learning, and artificial intelligence all have relatively specific meanings, but are often broadly used to refer to any sort of modern, big-data related processing approach. In this respect, it’s subject to the inevitable hype that accompanies real breakthroughs in data processing, which the industry most certainly is enjoying at the moment. Source: […]

With all the work you’re doing to create a humanlike persona for your AI, the last thing you want to do is break the spell with a lapse into botlike behavior — especially in the form of intrusive marketing. You might want to build your AI to offer tips and suggestions, but I would advise that […]

shows the limits of relying purely on statistical machine learning. “At some point, we have to admit that we need a little bit of semantics and a little bit of syntactic knowledge in these systems in order for them to be fluid and fluent,” says Hammond.
