It builds up, like compound interest," Warren Buffett once told an audience. Of course, Buffett was talking about the value of reading, but his thesis about compounding knowledge works not just for human but also for machines. When people talk about artificial intelligence today, what they usually mean is machine learning. Researchers come up with a new model (algorithm), feed it data to help it learn, and then test it in the real world. According to industry pioneer Andrew Ng, the data here is more important than the algorithm itself. That's because vast computational power is mostly a commodity now and a handful of clever engineers can come up with a relatively robust algorithm, however, the ultimate prize in the AI research world is a giant pool of high-quality data.
