What real-world problems can AI really solve? An interview with YITU Technology · TechNode

You might have heard about those ATMs that use facial recognition instead of cards and PIN numbers for authentication. You might also have seen on the news a smart security algorithm that helps police identify suspects and cracks criminal cases. Artificial intelligence (AI), the wiz behind these advanced technologies, is permeating our daily lives--everything from financial services to public safety to healthcare and transportation. YITU Technology, one of China's front-running AI startups, has developed solutions that help solve real-world problems. YITU now has the ability to enable accurate facial recognition with a large database of over 1 billion faces in just one second, and their technology has in fact assisted Chinese law enforcement in criminal investigations.
