This Is Where the Real Action in Artificial Intelligence Takes Place NDTV Gadgets360.com

But perhaps the real action in artificial intelligence is happening at the Hilton San Francisco, where a much less flashy tech crowd gathered this week. There, hundreds of engineers (2,500 to be precise), geeked out over fireside chats on topics such as "streaming data in real time" and "building accelerators in databases." The event, called the Spark Summit, brings together the growing number of developers who are working with Spark, perhaps the hottest data-mining software today. One way to understand future of artificial intelligence and how it will transform the economy is to watch what everyone is talking about at the Spark Summit. Engineers from companies such as Capital One to Airbnb spoke about their successful big data projects in pure engineering-ese.
