Predictive Thursdays: Probabilities Rule--The Road to AI Is Powered by Machine Learning

In 2011, in an article in the Wall Street Journal, Marc Andreessen proclaimed that software is eating the world. He argued that a slew of technological innovations including advanced microprocessors and high-speed connectivity will revolutionize traditional business, and that every company should become a software company. Many pundits have subsequently argued that even traditional businesses will need to rethink their business models. Andreessen even went so far as to say that the entire retail vertical will eventually die due to the scalability of companies like Amazon. In short, if you aren't thinking about how you will disrupt your industry you can bet your competitors are already doing so.
