NVIDIA's Jack Watts: Our GPUs Break Down Barriers to Deep Learning in Business

"It's difficult to overstate how significant the impact of AI is going to be on every aspect of business. Artificial intelligence won't be an industry, it will be part of every industry, as well as impacting our day to day lives as consumers. "An important aspect of artificial intelligence, and in particular the branch of AI called deep learning, is its ability to make sense of big data. From retail and healthcare to banking and manufacturing, organisations are producing data on a scale that's simply too massive for manual processing to be an option. In combination with graphics processing units (GPUs), which deliver the extreme processing power required, deep learning offers a way to turn the'black box' of big data into solutions that will transform business". Jack cites a number of examples across several industries in which AI is either playing a key role already, or is set to transform industries in the future. "We're already seeing companies using AI to customise the way consumers interact, procure and receive services from vendors.
