The Holy Trinity of Artificial Intelligence

But the really exciting part about this trend is the increasing ability to marry robotics with artificial intelligence. When this happens, robotics and machinery don't need to be programmed to perform certain tasks…they learn by trial and error. But first, there are three things that must come together to make advanced AI possible: Big Data, the computer-programming technique of deep learning and new concepts in both computer chips and how to use them. Big Data is the virtually limitless wilderness of facts, videos, infographics, statistics, public records and everything else stored on and collected from the internet. Software tools allow researchers to mine data to find useful nuggets -- they're digital needles in this infinite haystack of facts and information.
