Deep learning technologies evolving beyond human capacities - IoT Agenda

Adoption of artificial intelligence in different fields is growing at a rapid pace. AI-based systems are going way beyond the usual expectations from machines, as they can rival, even better, human capabilities in certain areas. AI can now outwit and outperform humans in various comprehension and image-recognition tasks. Apart from a robot's ability to survive deadly environments like deep space, deep learning has been widely used to teach AI-based system fine motor skills for doing tasks such as removing a nail and placing caps on bottles. The IoT is imminent – and so are the security challenges it will inevitably bring.
