The White House requested input on artificial intelligence, and IBM's response is a great AI 101

The field of artificial intelligence is so huge, and the potential applications so numerous, that it would be folly to try to explain it all in one -- no, wait, IBM just did. In June, the White House published a formal request for information, or RFI, about the possibilities and risks of AI. "The views of the American people, including stakeholders such as consumers, academic and industry researchers, private companies, and charitable foundations, are important to inform an understanding of current and future needs for AI in diverse fields," the summary read. IBM took the suggestion and ran with it. Each topic is given a solid enough explanation that after reading through the whole thing, you'll more than likely be the best-informed person in the room on it. We believe that many of the ambiguities and inefficiencies of the critical systems that facilitate life on this planet can be eliminated.
