Why is Artificial Intelligence So Useless for Business? - Matthew Eric Bassett, Ph.D.

Today's work in artificial intelligence is amazing. We've taught computers to beat the most advanced players in the most complex games. We've taught them to drive cars and create photo-realistic videos and images of people. They can re-create works of fine-art and emulate the best writers. Yet I know that many businesses still need people to, e.g., read PDF documents about an office building and write down the sizes of the leasable units contained therein.
