Newest AI technology set to disrupt tech sector, job markets

The adoption of AI technology is primed for growth over the next few years, but the direction that growth will take and how it will affect enterprises is anyone's guess. Speaking at the AI World Conference and Expo in Boston in December, Heath Terry, an analyst and manager in Goldman Sachs' Global Investment Research group, said that the newest AI technology will disrupt software and job markets. In this edition of the Talking Data podcast, we examine his predictions. One of the big points Terry made is that if you're waiting for established technology players like Amazon, Google or IBM to deliver tomorrow's most impactful AI tools, you're going to be disappointed. He pointed out that few new technologies were pioneered by existing tech companies.
