How blockchain can save AI from itself - JAXenter

With good reason, the general public has become increasingly wary about the sudden growth in artificial intelligence software, but another high-growth area of software--blockchain--could solve many of the issues holding back modern A.I. development and adoption. As a community, we must first acknowledge that real-world artificial intelligence has suffered from some rather spectacular public failures of late. Microsoft, one of the most technically advanced companies on the planet, saw its Tay A.I. chatbot turn racist almost immediately after its release in March of 2016. Meanwhile, Tesla recently admitted that a January 2018 crash was caused because its autopilot A.I. technology couldn't recognize a parked fire truck. In the two years between the Tay incident and the Tesla fire truck crash, A.I. has been required to accomplish more dangerous and complex work, without having shed its capacity for serious, unexpected failure.
