AI, blockchain, and new ways for everyone to monetize their data - Dataconomy

Breakthroughs in AI and innovations in applying blockchain for personal data control and monetization enable new ways to make money off of personal information that most people currently give away for free. Here we highlight three data science and business model innovations, starting with breakthrough ML technology that learns on the fly. There's an emergent machine learning technology out there that offers a clever new way of finding and classifying unstructured content. In geek-speak, the technology is a vertical, personalized search engine that doesn't require expensive knowledge graphs. In human speak, it's a context-sensitive, human-in-the-loop search engine that uses search criteria and implicit user feedback to recommend high-quality results.
