2017: Bigger, faster data makes for smarter machines – CSC Blogs

It's that most wonderful time of the year, a time when our CTO, Dan Hushon, makes his technology predictions for the year ahead. For me, those predictions set the tone for the year to come and help me focus my attention on the trends that really matter. This year, the topic that has me most inspired is the advent of big, fast data – data with high volume and velocity. Big, fast data will improve machine intelligence by being a better source of training for machine-learning algorithms. This new machine intelligence will give rise to an unprecedented growth in innovation and enterprise productivity.
