3 things we learned from Facebook's AI chief about the future of artificial intelligence

In recent years, many of the worlds biggest tech companies -- from Google to Facebook and Microsoft -- have been fixated on artificial intelligence and how it can be incorporated into nearly all of their products. For example, Google even rebranded its Google Research Division as Google AI ahead of its developers conference this year, during which AI was featured front and center. Mark Zuckerberg also explained how Facebook is using AI in an attempt to crack down on hate speech on its platform during its F8 conference in May. The AI market is also booming as companies continue to invest in cognitive software capabilities. The International Data Corporation indicates global spending on AI systems is expected to hit $77.6 billion in 2022, more than tripling the $24 billion forecast for 2018.
