You make 35,000 decisions a day, and Huawei wants AI to help out

#artificialintelligence

Imagine an artificially-intelligent smartphone so clever that when we point the camera at a beautiful scene, it will guide us to the best spot to snap a picture, ensuring the lighting, composition, and colors are all perfect. It's a feature that in theory is not too far away. You'll take an amazing picture, but it will likely be exactly the same as photos taken by every other person who stood there and asked their phone to do the same thing. The AI effectively turned us into automatons, sharing beautiful-but-identical cookie-cutter photos. AI is a threat to our creativity and freedom of thought.
