2010-2019: When Artificial Intelligence Trumped Humans

It's hard to read about a new advancement in technology these days without the mentioning of artificial intelligence (AI). That's because AI, without a doubt, has been one of the defining technologies of the decade. Moving forward, it's impossible to predict where AI will take humanity, as researchers continue to bring to reality many futuristic concepts that once only existed in our imaginations or sci-fi movies. Since the start of 2010, AI has beaten professional gamers, sparked a new age of digital innovation, and is now powering the self-driving car movement. The IBM Watson and DeepMind have already shown that machines can, in at least in some ways, outsmart humans. Many of us remembered, way back in 2012, Google showed how a computer can be used to identify what a cat looks like after learning from thousands of cat videos, indicating the eerie yet untapped potential of deep learning in an advanced computer.
