The idea has appeared in my head during a talk given by an Artificial Intelligence expert, Alejandro Saucedo, at my university. It felt really exciting: there was a huge amount of students interested in AI and there was no study group like that at my Uni. What I was waiting for then? That was the beginning of the story of how creating a study group boosted my knowledge about AI and helped me in getting a summer internship in Machine Learning. I have never suspected that it will have such a big impact on me and on students who joined the group.

At the recent Davos 2017, Klaus Schwab, the founder of the World Economic Forum in conversation with Sergey Brin, co-Founder of Alphabet Google, described his book the 4th Industrial Revolution1 published just a year ago, as rapidly evolving with the rise of artificial intelligence2. While this revolution in fusion of physical, digital, and biological worlds from 3D printing, additive manufacturing, and net shape processing to nanotechnology, bioengineering to deep neural networks were. Most commentators and governments are looking at the positive and negative consequences of these changes both in terms of direct human work impact and indirect associated activity that may be impact from automation and a society with AI.
