"It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking thirteen." The opening line of George Orwell's great novel 1984 sets up a cautionary tale of how the future could look. In its way, what we're confronting in 2020 is every bit as chilling, but it is also an exciting time of opportunity. Yet, just as the clocks "were striking thirteen", there could be alarming changes at work in the name of progress. "Within the next five years, 20 per cent of all the jobs that exist today will have been automated away," claims futurologist Rohit Talwar.

As retailers and brands predict and plan for the way consumers will shop in the future, artificial intelligence (AI) is high on the business development strategy for 2016 and beyond. Promising significant benefits for both retailers and consumers, AI is already around us and used everyday within shopping and payments. Businesses are embracing the benefits of the technology and progress within AI is accelerating at pace, with big things expected for the near, and distant, future. AI can process'big data' far more efficiently than humans and can recognise speech, images, text, patterns of online behaviour – for example to detect fraud – as well as appropriate advertisements for upselling. Smart machines and technology can turn data into customer insights and enhance service provisions, bringing the digital experience closer to the in-store interaction for consumers.

Now in its 30th year South by Southwest is synonymous with creativity and innovation for advertisers and marketers from around the world and this year has seen the program significantly expand with hundreds of new sessions catering to a record breaking 72,000 delegates across its interactive, music and film festivals. So beyond dizzying crowds, and the ever-present fear of missing out on the next big thing, what are some of the key trends to have emerged from the annual techie talkfest and what are the things which were hot in previous years but have now have lost their cool after going mainstream? Walking around Austin, VR is everywhere. Demand by festival goers to get their hands on the latest 360 experience has left people queuing day and night for their chance to play. Samsung, realising the round the clock queues their 5D sensory experience would attract, took things a step further with a tweet containing #VRonDemand summoning one of Austin's iconic hipster peddled pedicabs to your location wherever you were, taking the experience out of the showroom and into the streets. However, there was no sign of Microsoft's augmented reality visor the Hololens this year.

Through a mix of presentations and discussion we will explore the evidence about if and how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can support teaching and learning. For those who would like to know more about AI and Education please see the report published earlier this month.

Earlier this year, consulting firm Frost & Sullivan predicted that artificial intelligence in healthcare will see a "dramatic market expansion" in the next couple of years, with the potential to reduce the cost of medical treatments by half across the board. "By 2025, AI systems could be involved in everything from population health management, to digital avatars capable of answering specific patient queries," said Harpreet Singh Buttar, an analyst at Frost & Sullivan. With this in mind, we identified 32 companies that are already applying machine learning techniques and predictive analytics to reduce drug discovery times, provide virtual assistance to patients, and diagnose ailments by processing medical images, among other things. The 32 startups on the list have raised more than 530M in aggregate funding. This year, New York-based AiCure raised 12.3M in Series A funding and National Science Foundation-grantee Cloud Pharmaceuticals raised a 350K round from undisclosed investors.

Phil and Stephen Gordon discuss rapid progress in artificial intelligence and how AI is fundamentally reshaping our world.

I have been getting into Natural Language Processing more lately, and have been reading about tools and products that are available right now. I came across the name Narrative Science again. It's an Artificial Intelligence technology company based in Chicago. I first heard about them a few years ago when I read an article about one of their products writing pretty decent sports reports for local newspapers. I looked around their website to see if I can learn a bit more about their technology, but unsurprisingly they are very cagey about revealing anything actionable about their work.

Beware this article may contain spoilers! Here is a list of AI movies you should definitely watch. I guess I first realised what AI meant when I was watching A.I. Artificial Intelligence: a small boy could technically be replaced by a robot, expressing his feelings, thinking and learning things like a real human. What struck me in the movie, was that no matter what the robot did to be like a real boy, it seemed to stop him from being accepted as a son. It seemed inevitable: Humans & AI could not coexist in the same Universe.

Artificial Intelligence is by now a relatively old field, having originated in the early days of the digital computer revolution. However, it has had a very rocky and turbulent history, going through several cycles of overblown expectations followed by almost equally dramatic swings towards disillusionment and skepticism. In recent years, though, it has matured into a very solid and practical discipline that exercises an ever growing importance across a wide breadth of technologies and professions. We increasingly take speech recognition, handwriting recognition, and natural language search for granted. Basic familiarity with what Artificial Intelligence is, and what tools and techniques fall under its domain, are becoming ever important aspect of a variety of professions and occupations.
