Machine learning is the study of algorithms that learn from data and experience.

Today we are honored to have on the pod one of the co-founders of Unbounce, Oli Gardner. Most of our listeners should know that Unbounce is matchnode landing page platform of choice. We just got back from their call to action conference in Vancouver where we had a chance to speak and had a great time. Happy to have you on the pod today, welcome Oli. BRIAN: Cool, well most of our listeners as I said should be familiar with Unbounce but can you give a brief overview for anyone who hasn't heard of Unbounce? Basically the goal of it is to empower marketers to do their own work without relying on technical people like developers to IT so you can build publish and a/b test landing pages without the help of IT or technical people. It's loaded with templates that are mobile responsive.

Has your child swallowed a small battery? In the future, a tiny robot made from pig gut could capture it and expel it. Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology are designing an ingestible robot that could bpatch wounds, deliver medicine or dislodge a foreign object. They call their experiment an "origami robot" because the accordion-shaped gadget gets folded up and frozen into an ice capsule. "You swallow the robot, and when it gets to your stomach the ice melts and the robot unfolds," said Daniela Rus, a professor who directs MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

The traditional definition of artificial intelligence is the ability of machines to execute tasks and solve problems in ways normally attributed to humans. Some tasks that we consider simple--recognizing an object in a photo, driving a car--are incredibly complex for AI. Machines can surpass us when it comes to things like playing chess, but those machines are limited by the manual nature of their programming; a 30 gadget can beat us at a board game, but it can't do--or learn to do--anything else. This is where machine learning comes in. Show millions of cat photos to a machine, and it will hone its algorithms to improve at recognizing pictures of cats.

The views expressed below are my own and do not reflect those of my employer or its clients. The underlying assumption is that the main objective of science and technology is to help solve the biggest challenges faced by humans, to name a few; climate change, cancer, incompetent rulers, etc. The objective is not necessarily the creation of maximum economic value (the two are not mutually exclusive in theory at least). The movement of science and technology is towards the shores of artificial intelligence (AI) coupled with the hope that it might unlock some of the biggest mysteries of our world. We can all agree that there is a lot of hype about AI.

Recruitment is a prime candidate for automation through artificial intelligence and machine learning, but what does this mean for the human side of hiring? The manual nature of many hiring processes has seen the recruitment sector jump to the front of the HR queue in terms of adopting artificial intelligence. Predictive recruitment analytics: are you ready for the future? Even though the market is still immature and uptake is at the earliest of stages, machine-learning software is making its presence felt. But how significant an impact is it likely to have on HR and recruitment over the next few years?

Yet most of the concerns about the rise of the robots are centered on distributional concerns. The robots might boost productivity growth and therefore the growth of economic output, but will they displace large swaths of workers? This first fear--that robots will massively displace labor across manufacturing and services industries--is a concern because in the future additional capital investment in all manner of robots may well supplant labor rather than supplement it. If robots can essentially replace a large chunk of labor, then businesses will stop hiring workers and instead replace them with robots. Imagine an economy-wide version of robots on factory floors.

On the one hand, it makes perfect sense why the Japanese tech conglomerate SoftBank would want to buy ARM Holdings, the chip designer that pretty much owns the mobile market. SoftBank offered 17 a share in cash for ARM (about 32 billion). That was 43% more than ARM's closing share price on Friday and 41% more than ARM's all-time-high closing share price. This could be the largest-ever tech acquisition of a European company. ARM helped propel the mobile device market forward by crafting designs for low-power microchips.
