Five Industries That Will Eliminate Legacy Issues Using AI

AI just recently began making its way into the public consciousness, but over the next several years it will step in to transform entire industries. Key to this transformation is AI's unlimited capacity to process and analyze mass amounts of data, and then act autonomously on the insights. Compare this to the status quo: We have tons of data but only a limited capacity to put it to work. Having worked in AI for almost a decade, I was able to ask scientists and researchers I've collaborated with--and who are working on AI solutions that exceed what any of us has seen so far--which industries are likely to be transformed by AI first and what that will look like. Based on their answers, here are five industries I think will lead the charge, and how AI will fuel their disruption.
