AI, Hype & Human Intelligence

Professor Stephen Hawking recently said, "the rise of powerful AI will be either the best or the worst thing ever to happen to humanity. We do not know which". AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Machine Learning are pushing new frontiers, with the hype now reality across almost all industries. Breakthroughs in AI by the likes of Google, IBM, Facebook and other tech giants are being achieved faster than many predicted. While some argue that it is only a matter of time before deep learning, where machines learn better than humans, takes over completely, we believe that AI needs a healthy dose of HI (Human Intelligence) to support it.
